Here's a couple teaser pics of stuff i've done recently. The pics are
crappy, so i'm going to have to put off more pics until i improve the
lighting situation. After that, i'll post some detail shots.

About the models:

The turbocycle- i took inspiration from the rash of last year's turbocycles,
and built this a few months ago. Also sort of akira-ish of course.

The heavy tank- built this last year, it has a crew of 3, the commander's
chair telescopes up for hatch access, etc etc

The sneaky turtle- a stealth mech, so naturally a camo paint scheme in tan,
green, brown, and black. the shell opens up for operator access, the head is
a sensor array...

it's made from a bionicle-style frame work, bulked up by bricks

the monkey latched on to the frame during a recent mission, and has
befriended the driver- now he follows him everywhere, and might play a role
in the future...

anyhoo- sorry about the crappy pics, but LMK what you think and thanks

ps- the mystery mech is an older one, and can be seen here:

Heya Moish, I remember seeing and really liking some of your MOCs a while ago. You have a cool, old-school style when it comes to mecha. Your Bipedal Tank and newer models remind me a lot Ben Vaughan's early stuff, as well as Colin R. Gutierrez's. (...) (22 years ago, 26-May-02, to lugnet.build)
