(...) Thanks. The GR-D is 30 inches tall exactly. I don't know how much it weighs, but just mating the torso to the body during construction made me wish I had a gantry crane. It needs to cut back on the doughnuts. ;-) K (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Adjust your monitor and you may see that. Wonderful!!! Thanks for the (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I like the brown/orange scheme, and the finned toes, using the orange 4x2 mudguard. And the hip missile racks (the over-the-shoulder racks are more ordinary). The 1x1 tooth plates give its face a quizzical expression. Critique IMHO: in these (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Here are some technique tidbits: The torso is built around the main gun and the structure needed to extend it. This was a very fun part to design. The gun is mounted on a backing which is two bricks thick. Little 1x2 slider tabs extend horizontally (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
