  Re: New Mecha
 
Hey, great work, I really like this new Mech, very well done, nice colors, good design and an excellent build. Right on! Eric (17 years ago, 9-Oct-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Mecha
 
(...) Thanks, Fradel. My goal was to make a mech with the mission profile of the Longbow, but have it be lighter and faster. Ironically, I do believe I had this slated as a 3058 mech. Thanks again, Jon (17 years ago, 6-Oct-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) I'm diggin it. Interesting way of lifting the A-wing canopy. It has a very Task Force Serpent era feel. Look forward to seeing what else you can bring to the 'Shere. F (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Blackout Transformer from the movie
 
Beautiful! An excellent chopper and an excellent robot. Looks better than the toy since you can add more articulation. Superb work! Dave S. (17 years ago, 1-Sep-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Blackout Transformer from the movie
 
Simply amazing! I'm not a huge fan of the movie, but you've captured Blackout very well! I've always wondered about building Transformers, but haven't really tried it since I was very young. These new Transformers have a very complex way of (...) (17 years ago, 31-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Blackout Transformer from the movie
 
So, I saw the movie, and it made me want to build another Transformer, so I knocked this little ol' thing out. (2 URLs) Click the pictures, if you please. Adrian (17 years ago, 31-Aug-07, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX) !!

  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) Thanks Travis. I'll have a new design done probably within the next week. Then I'll get a chance to use the PNG file. (17 years ago, 17-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) PNG files are lossless, which means they'll look identical to the BMP files. Taking spartan01.bmp as an example, the BMP file is 1880KB (1.8MB), while a PNG of the same image is 74KB, and the two images are identical on-screen. When I posted (...)

  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) Exactly. I've never used a faucet, but I use the bases all the time. (17 years ago, 17-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) Hi Fradel. Thanks very much. Both of the parts you're asking about are found in the official parts list downloaded with LDRAW. The first piece I believe you are referring to is just a faucet base without the actual faucet attached. The (...) (17 years ago, 17-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: NOX - Heavy Assault Mech
 
(...) Daddy likes, but I'm not feelin the red for the trans color choice. It kinda fights with the green. BTW, are those smoke dispensers midway the length of the legs? F (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) Nice stuff. Yer mecha portfolio rocks. I was wondering btw, what are those pieces beside the part with the chevrons and what is with those inverted slopes as sideburns. They don't look quite right? Does MLCAD mod parts? F (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) Thanks Travis, but it's far from my first major design. It's just the first that I announced here on Lugnet. I'm still finding my way around the new MOC pages posting method, but I see they do allow PNG, so I'll take your advice and try that (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost

However MOC pages doesn't allow them anymore anyway, so my latest design, and all my future designs will not be in bmp format. Reloading (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) I do like the mech, and if it's your first major MLCAD design, I'm really impressed, since I know mechs can be a pain to model. (Even if it's not your first major model, I'm still impressed by it. I like the design.) But John's right about the (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spartan Heavy Assault Mech Repost
 
(...) I'll leave the Mecha critique for those who are more qualified (I, personally, am into trains), but I will offer this bit of advice to you. Don't upload .bmp files. Personally, I won't download them, as I know a lot of people won't, either. (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: Mech Bay 13
 
(...) Great Mech Bay! One of the best, for sure. That mech looks pretty special too (and nice use of ratlines!) and blue is a nice colour choice against the black bay - any chance of some pics of it outside the bay?
