  Re: Delurking and pose contest entry.
 
I love the chunky "musclebound" style of that contract killer, as well of the use of the different reds. The pose is nice too. I take it he is standing on the remains of some other mech? I am looking forward to your other mechs. Danny (19 years ago, 24-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
