So you couldn't use an image that's been on BS for a month but would have to take a new picture of the creation or use a picture that no one has seen yet. Any creation images that were (...)

(...) I will be entering a gla frame in the 6 to 12 in mech class. Mainly for fun but I also have a pose that is NOT seen in his gallery.

Hello Mark, great idea! I hope to participate in at least two categories. But I've two questions: 1.) What exactly does new mean. Not published before your announcment of the contest, or first published as nominee for the contest? 2.) What if I (...) (19 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Glad you like it. The droid arm detail wasn't part of the original design. I added it later, and removed it, added it ones more, and removed it, added it onec more and thought it looks better with. Although I can't think of any technical use. (...)

(...) Kind of looks like a dwarf version of your mechs; shorter but bulkier, with really strong muscles. It looks like it could be designed for use on a planet with strong gravity, like two or three G's. The yellow and dark red is an interesting (...)
