| (...) It's kinda funny, when I saw Eric's post initially, I had sort of the same reaction as Adrian. I saw the picture of another Sophie-Mech, and didn't bother clicking further. I happened to catch Adrian's post as it went by, and since have (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Not so. Greeblings and SNOT work are both directly related to style and design. Articulation is more about the mechanics, and while it can effect design, it isn't the focus of design. The specifics of how the SNOT work is done (ie, using 1x1 (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
| | | | | Re: The Beeesh
|
| (...) That's a shame, because articulation is at least half of what defines a good mech. It's akin to ignoring SNOT work or greebling that is particuarily well done. (...) Fair enough, (exactly what I do as well) but I'm just voicing the flip side (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

The tech is tighter, the visible gears aren't showing the (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

It's 30 inches tall, not quite three feet, but on the minifig scale that's about 110 feet tall, coincidentally the same conjectured height as the Colossus of Rhodes, a virtual minifig tourist attraction, when it isn't on a destructive (...)

| Brain, Sweeeeet mecha! Nice to see you are at it again. That is one of the best I have ever seen. It even rivals the Gundams you have built. I have one question....How tall is that thing? The biggest I have built was maybe 12", and that thing looks (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Thank you Soren, this was the Mecha light of my day! Kinda different, the orange knees stand out, but not in a bad way. Is this a reclining couch kind of cockpit? I'm still thinking different. It's got a look that has me go, ewww, yet hmmm (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Maybe the pilot is in perpetual fear of an air (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) I tend to agree with Adrian. This is old hat for you by now. The over-all form is nice, but some parts seem out of scale or out of place to me. The scale issues come from the comparative lengths between arms, legs, and torso. I'd expect the (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
| | | | | Re: New MOC:

It has the scale of the mobile platform from Appleseed, yet features Patlabor-type styling. BTW, for sure in '05 I'm going to do (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

My favorite things though are the ordinance, the turrets, and the awesome seat. (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

It certainly would be interesting to make microfig versions of all six mobile plaforms. Someday perhaps... (...) Thanks (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
