(...) Yo, thanks Mladen. The color grouping actually sort of happened by accident. This was strictly a "whatever works and fits in the required space" build. Glad it looks like I tried tho. :-) As for the weapons, I did have the rifle a lot beefier (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Tobias. The shoulders fell into place right after I got the orientation of the dino tails right. I just sort of took it from there. (...) Yeah, I try all the time to make narrow joints that only occupy on stud's width, and it usually (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Thanks to everyone for the replies and suggestions. I will take these into account on my future builds. I should have my Gundam up in a day or two. -Brayton (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I can't say that I've ever seen Appleseed, and I'm not sure if I've seen and of Shirow's work, though it sounds like I should check it out. So, I am willing to take suggestions, and am going to post this bot to build.mecha. So mecha folks, (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Killer hardsuit Chris! It's amazing how small yet "hardy" it looks. I like the colours a lot also, and it looks like you tried to group them as best as you could. I do think you could have given more spice to those weapons, nothing radical, (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I really like this. Like Kyle, it gave me a lot of valuable inspiration on how to build small things while still maintaining a detailed look. I've been trying for some time to build small, but it hasn't worked out. Obviously, 1*1's in all flavours (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

This is good, I like it. It's small, it's beefy (great shoulders), it's not something you want to see walking down your street touting guns. The color scheme works really well. Very well executed. Just when I had seen Brayton's hardsuit and thought (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Now that's almost scary. Scary in the "I hate you because I can't figure out how you did that" scary. :-) Seriously, very cool to see a mecha with more than two arms. And the way you totally entombed the fig is top notch. Well done. The only (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
