  Re: A couple mini-mechs
 
Excellent job, Peter! Proof that cool things can come in small packages. I'm quite fond of the Demolisher, as it's more mecha-like. Great overall design.

  Re: A couple mini-mechs

  Re: Itsy Bitsy Spider...
 
(...) Thanks Lenny, I hear you. The legs kind of bug me because of the holes, but the shape more than makes up for it.
