| (...) Great to hear. Stormwalker is a great Mech! (...) Awesome! (...) I like how you grew the feet. Wing plates work good on the feet, right?! They have a cool shape and match the body scheme well. An idea I wanted to share. I, and others have (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Hey this is very cool. Green too! Building while under the weather. You have more than one sickness. I ought to know! Very cool Mech. Fast build! I really like the boat hulls under the arms and the wedge bricks in the shoulder structure. I see cool (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Thank you Kyle! When I built Stormwalker I thought the weapons were go as they were. But in the replies to the original post nearly everybode told me they were to small. Well they all were right! I liked your idea of leaving the cockpit/body (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Missile banks flanking the cockpit is one of my personal favorite motifs. The overall style of the mech reminds me a lot of the Shadowcat, which is one of my favorite mechs to drive in MW4, although I think Velociraptor is at least twice as (...)

| | | | | Re: Insruction pics for Power Armor structure
|
| (...) Hello Kyle, thanks for those instructions. I saw your power armor a while ago. I was fascinated and wanted to build one on my own. Well I failed! I couldn't figure out how you did it. But now I'm gonna have my own. And I will post it! (URL) (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Nice work, Marco, the big guns are sweeeeeet! A good match for the main body. Also, kudos on bringing the hips closer together. Only a couple studs, as you mentioned, but I often find even small improvements are worthwhile. (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
| | | | | Insruction pics for Power Armor structure
|
| Eric, as well as some reviewers on MOCpages, suggested I publish instructions for my power armor design, and I finally got around to it. The basic structure is pretty simple--if you were looking for a design you could mass produce for a diorama or (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Hi Brian, yes the lift arms twist under the weight. No they don't cause wobbliness or undesired movement. You can see what happens on this picture (URL). The turntables should stand nearly verticaly upright. They dont because of the twisted (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| | | | | Re: Stormwalker MkII
|
| (...) Marco, Just so I get a better understanding, the Liftarm twists under the weight of the Mech causing "wobbliness" or undesired movement? However, the liftarm has not broken nor twisted to the point that it is forever ruined? Brian (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Thanks to everybody who replied on (URL) Stormwalker>. It gave a strong motivation to me getting such constructive critics.

| | | | | Re: Velociraptor
|

The bad side is it doesn't move but you can stack all kind of brick on top of it and it'll hold the pose. (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
