| Hello Jon, I like the approach of a tripedal. It's not seen that often. The color scheme is perfect. Special thanks for (URL) this shot>! Now to the criticism. On the MOC I've none. But your photography is like mine, it needs improvement. I myself (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Thanks Kyle, I had a lot of fun trying how poseable Shiko is. (...) I've a new camera. And I'm not yet really used to it. Up to now I couldn't manage to get bright pictures w/o using flashlight. Which often results in ugly spotlights on the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Check out the "Traikon" Heavy Assault Mecha- (URL) at 14.5 inches tall, the Traikon is my first mecha with Gundam-style hip and leg armor. Special thanks go out Eric Sophie and MC7- the ankle assembly is a modular version of their recent mecha frame (...)

| (...) Thanks Kyle, I'd have to agree with you on the cockpit piece, but I gotta build stuff that doesn't use it so my Mechs don't all look the same. I especially liked how you incorporated it into your quad mech. Keep on building! -Jon (19 years ago, 25-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) This might be the first mech I've seen that will literally (URL) bend over backwards> to get the job done. I see he's also into (URL) and (URL). That's a lot of posability. BTW, whatever lighting/editing you used for the sit-up shot, try to (...) (19 years ago, 23-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) snip I think the three-leg design helps contribute to the angular theme of the mech, which makes it more interesting, IMO. Four legs would almost give it too much symmetry. I like the gray color scheme, and the use of the printed slopes really (...) (19 years ago, 23-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Thanks, Peter, I'm still working on my photography. :) I agree with you , that movement for the T.A.U. would be far from efficient (that's why it's a LONG range fire support mech...LOL)! Thanks for your comments! -Jon (19 years ago, 23-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) I understand your position, Allister, and appreciate your input, but the idea of building this Mech was more about having fun building and trying something truly " off the wall" than focusing on what could be done in reality. However, it (...) (19 years ago, 23-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

So, you didn't take pains to get your legs at 270 degrees which I as a glutton for punishment did, big deal!I also think that your design would walk a lot better than mine. Your stuff (...)
