Wow, for such small mechs they have great detail, my favorite would have to be the demolisher. The legs seem to go perfectly with the rest of the body and the dual chainsaws are nice! I also really like the method you used with the hinges for the (...) (21 years ago, 9-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Greetings, A few people seemed interested in a further explanation of my SNOT wing building techniques, so I did a wing dissection and posted the pictures to my brickshelf gallery: (URL) think the photos pretty much speak for themselves, but I'd be (...)

(...) Thanks Lenny, I hear you. The legs kind of bug me because of the holes, but the shape more than makes up for it. I went to cover and build on the legs but then I lost the slenderness and "spideryness" (word?) of them. Once I started to build (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Thanks for the commments. (...) Hmmm, perhaps not. But remember, in the Cockpit of a MWP, no one can hear you scream.... "Where are the signals coming from?!?! They're everywhere man!
