It looks Avian, but at the same time Saurian. For some reason, I think this mecha would look good with a dinosaur-like tail. You know, you can articulate a long tail with a dozen worm gears... Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned this. You'll dry up the (...) (20 years ago, 7-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
