(...) It's pretty loose, But I like how one of my friends put it. "It seems to be that mecha tends to imitate life."

I like the bullfrog a lot, although maybe it would look better if the 'bottom lip' didn't stick out - it'd just pull the COG of the cockpit back toward the pelvis a bit. I could be wrong though. Also, the big cannon have beautifully clean lines, and (...) (21 years ago, 4-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) The beefy-ness of the Bullfrog is amazing. You can practically here the THUD-THUD of it clunking around. The splayed leg structure suits it as well. Cheers, -Gil (21 years ago, 4-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
