  Re: Spider Tank
 
(...) Yeah, I *might* have gotten a little carried away with the colorless color scheme. Now I'm wondering if I have the parts to do the back in dark red, sort of a black widow scheme. I do recommend the cockpit part, it gives you a great sharp (...) (19 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spider Tank
 
(...) I think most of my stuff winds up having a little "cute" content in it. I'd credit (blame?) the anime influence. BTW, I have to confess the wheels don't turn freely, so the model doesn't roll (they're wrapped around 1x1 cylinders). (19 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spider Tank
 
(...) Yes, a true Shirow spider tank would never be without a pair of minigun claws. I'm glad I put in extra time on the nose-gun, though. You should have seen the inelegant chunk of crap I had as the first version. It didn't even pivot (...) (19 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spider Tank
 
(...) Thanks for the compliments, Marco. The color scheme really worked itself out. I knew I had to use dark blay for the canopy and joints, I needed to use black for the wheel mountings in the lower legs, and I needed to use white for the half (...)

  Re: Spider Tank
 
(...) Kyle, Kyle, Kyle. That's absolutely beautiful, and an excellent use of the "new" ball joints. A couple of questions: 1) The white missile racks appear to vary in the pictures. Is that so, or is that a system of covers? 2) Do you have better (...) (19 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Titan XP Red
 
Well, Mark, I did take a few small liberties, but I kept the overall 'feel' of the mech the same. I didn't want to change the shape unless I absolutely had to. I like the 'multiple variations' idea. I've been tempted to pick up a couple more and (...) (19 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Titan XP Red
 
Cool Dave! I hadn't appreciated that you replaced all the parts the same. I figured you just used something close. Awesome man. We should get a bunch of these and just tack on our own color schemes, could be fun to see waht people come up with. Like (...) (19 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

luv 'em! (19 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Spider Tank
 
Man wow. You desreve all the praise heaped onto you here. I only got this for ya. Photography, lighten up the black so we can see it. The cockpit shot is almost useless because all we see is black. So there's my critizism. Pretty lame of me. Dang (...) (19 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
