  Re: tightening up mecha joints
 
(...) Well, it's kinda annoying to do, but something I did for my mech (the legs would just bow right out when I tried to pose him) was a method using paper slips. I cut some very narrow slips of paper, and for each technic pin joint, I would stick (...) (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: What is that mysterious green thing?
 
(...) Or a bat glider to stand and fly on. And a stocking hat with a very long top/tail. And big ears. (...) Looks very cool. More organic than most mech. Or have I just not been paying attention. Steve (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  tightening up mecha joints
 
What's the best way to tighten up technic friction pin joints used for mecha? I have an old-style technic pin (a little tighter than the newer ones with the rectangular cutouts) holding the shoulders and hips of my new mech together. The shoulders (...)

  Re: Finally!!!
 
(...) First off, thanks! Wow, to think the great Mladen is jelous of *me*... :) Secondly, yes, I build my models (or at least structural mock-ups) IRL and then LDraw them. The ZOOT Suit was inspired by Jsproat's armor years ago and has been keeping (...) (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Finally!!!
 
Looks like someone has been studing some multi-legged mecha pictures: (URL) mecha Jeremiah, I'm growing more and more jealous of you! ;-) Your SpiderTank thingy is amazing, and I know I'm building a Toad Suit tonight! ;-) BTW I'm kinda sad to see (...)

  Finally!!!
 
Hey all, Well, I finally did it - I figured out that *I* was the problem at my Brickshelf account (or at least my choice in filenames was...), and now I have my three favorite creations from my "Broken Earth" universe. See them here: (URL) Shown are (...) (24 years ago, 17-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Primus BuS' Marauder (Hey, Primus)
 
I built the Marauder, as you've probably heard, and did my best to 'colorize' it in a grey/dark grey color scheme..... and then used it at the BrikWar event. Man, I'm glad I did that - the Marauder layed waste to 60% of Greg Majewski's army, and (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
