(...) Okay then... The combination of smooth forehead and fiberoptic "hair" at the base of the skull made me wonder for a minute if it was a self-portrait :). That's all I can think of, really. Soren (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I wasn't to happy with the limbs myself. I'll put them back on the drawing board and see what I can come up with for the Mark II. Troy (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
