In lugnet.build.mecha, Zac Soden wrote: -snip- (...) Sorry, guess I wasn't clear about that. I meant make the missiles stand out more visually.

  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
(...) Thanks Marco. I suppose that the moral of the story is never skimp on joints - in the long run making sacrifices for more sturdier joints is going to make the model more dynamic and thus better. And yeah I'm very happy with it's posability! (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
(...) Thanks Mark, As a programmer I feel quite embarraced that I didn't do the ftx properly! At least I got the text links right! In my defence, it seems a really wierd 'language'. I'm glad you liked the model. Yeah boxy was the aim - I was (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
(...) Thanks Mladen. Yeah your tips helped me to put just the right finishing touches. The AA guns I love too (even more than the rocket pod yet funnily enough the guns were a lot less effort) and they do depress to about -5 degrees although the (...)

  Iron Mecha: Hitachi Heavy Industries
 
Hi all, My final entry. Hitachi Heavy Industries Iron Mecha (2 URLs) BS gallery> I reconfigured the concept art into a crane after people commented that the side cockpit (what I started with) looked like a crane. I also have no idea how to build (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)
 
  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
Hi Zac, great job! I like the legs and feet. The details and the guns. But most of all I like that look of this bulky body heading straight foreward to blow away everything that's in the way. (4 URLs) Here you can see it the best! I tried this look (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Iron Mecha 2nd Update
 
Third update: I switched themes from a construction type mecha to a military one simply because I'm running out of time and think a crane is harder to build than a big gun. Also I couldn't figure out a good use for the "missle pods". So here's the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) -snip- (...) Here's a corrected link: (URL) I really like the small changes you made, Zac. The AA guns are awesome, and look like they can depress to engage ground targets, which is what AA guns do most of the time when they're not firing (...)

  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
Hey Zac, this is a fantastic little mech. The greebling keeps it plenty busy and looks like a tank. The roundness of the legs sold me. The body looks a bit boxy for the size of it, but again, as a tank isn't too much of a hit. I like your variations (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
Hi builders and buildettes, After being stuck at home for days with a partially collapsed lung (spontaneous pneumothorax for those in the know) for with the doctor says just 'rest' I had a good build session and finally got a mech done. It's been a (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  iron mecha entry
 
Never built a robot before - but I think I did a pretty good job with this one. (URL) a lot of fun building this, so no matter what the contest results are, I have already won, so to speak. (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Re: Iron Mecha Official Entry
 
(...) That Red with the Dark Grey will never go out of style! Looks good. I like the way you did the feet. They are classic, yet nicely emulate the drawing. (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

snip (...) snip why not use the 3l axle with stud (with the stud part) sandwiched between two 1x2 technic bricks. very stiff and gives you a 2l worth of axle to attach to. Mark (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
