After going back to the drawing board, the engineers threw out the mid-twentieth century 'atomic' legs and designed a pair of anime-style mecha legs. The new legs provide 20% more ground speed, as well as enabling the Paladin hardsuit to leap to (...) (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Kudos, Eric. Skrylitch is beautiful! This thing really combines so many different techniques--technic construction, SNOT, lighting, and of course the pink magic wand tongue--it really shows how well you know the brick and its dimensions and (...)

(...) I really like the hybrid standard-leg/chicken-leg hybrid style. If only you had a tiny lego gyroscope that would allow the mech to balance on just the brown wedge points. Eric, are you listening... (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Well, this is definately one of the better gundam models i have seen. I really like torso and all the crazy angles you included in it, as well as the beautiful studless design. The hips and legs are downright awesome. As a person who generally (...) (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Usually when i build my mecha i try and stand them up as i build to gauge the proportions and stuff, but it is hard to balance a mecha with barely (...)

(...) Yeah, it was my favorite as well, glad you enjoyed it! (...) Oddly enough i have been trying to use some of those brown wedges for ages, usually as swords or arms, i guess they work better as feet! And Many thanks for the kind remarks! (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Chris. I think the torso might look out of proportion because I took the pics at a downward angle. I'll have to get more pics up to give a better idea of the size. I guess a lot of proportion is just personal preference. -Brayton (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Although you've already made many technic mecha's,you still keep surprising me with new improved things. Another fine addition to your mecha designs! But I don't wanna know what is behind the flaps in the middle of Skrylitch his hips... :P Cheers! (...) (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)

(...) I agree with Chris. You may also want to cover those exposed studs, as they add to the unfinished quality. I really like the chest as it makes it look all big and tough. this mecha definately has some promise! -Lenny (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
