(...) Mah boy! Very nice one this time, E. I really enjoyed watching the progression as it went together. As for the moc itself, the head isn't one of my favorites of yours.

Well, Eric, you received a nice long letter from me about this one, so you know I favor it greatly, but I wanted to post a couple of things publicly about it. I really like the curviness of Skrylitch. It's less blockly than most brick-built (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
