Hehowerverllo all, In the last few weeks I finally had some time to build again. I built three mecha along a similar design base.

I'll wrap this into one post and save some room. Thanks for all your comments. It was fun building something with a bit of a cartoony flare to it. And the X-pod container just really seemed to fit. A lot better than the typical dome canopy. This (...) (17 years ago, 11-May-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
