(...) Hmmmm, methinks someone has been watching Gasaraki... ;D Anyway, very cool design! Can't wait to see the whole thing! I like the mecha, too, but isn't it a little dangerous for the pilots to be exposed like that? :) Jeff (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

I rarely throw something completely out. Usually, I'll start to throw together a facade or something with a few bricks and windows on the floor.
