Over at CS there is a black fantasy contest generating some interesting biomechanical models. I was able to generate a few myself. The more difficult part is not designing or building but photographing an all black creation. I usually depend on the (...)

Hey, this is a good one! Is that tan, or dark tan or something? I like those white slopes too! I started to realize more about this build when I looked at the pictures of the side view. Good work! Eric Sophie (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks, Richie As far as the shoulders, they were made oversized on purpose. There are a couple of old Battletech designs such as the Charger, Griffin, and the Hatamoto that had armor baffles on their shoulders. Glad you liked it!! -Jon (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Nice work, Jon! I particularly like the choice of colours - subtle, but interesting. One minor criticism: the shoulders seem a little broad, a studs width of two off each side would help, I think. Spotlighted! Cheers Richie Dulin (17 years ago, 7-Feb-08, to lugnet.build.mecha)
