  Eric's MechBay 14 looks good!
 
I'm afraid that I'm not a fan of mecha at all, but I do like Moonbases. Now this one of Eric's (URL) I like a lot! The blue and the grey are a GREAT color combination IMHO! Of course, if you made a Docking Bay in this style for Classic Space ships (...) (18 years ago, 27-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: Green Quad
 
(...) I like it. I'm not a big mecha fan, and honestly your work, while awesome, can be a bit repetitive- but this is cute. Does it walk? Or roll? Does it sit up, or do tricks? Or is that all coming in the next model? Tim (Smith) (18 years ago, 20-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: Gorilla and Arm: two new mecha
 
Excellent models Tim. The gorilla is a nice take on the Power Suit. I'm not fond of yellow but it works well here. The other is interesting. It's good to see some mecha builders who aren't afraid to try some new things. (18 years ago, 6-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
