  Re: Latest Mechs
 
Hi Jon!, this might seem odd, but I like the yellow 2x2 plates and how they add to the way your mechs look. Yep, that was odd. Still I like them. Also, I was wondering, please tell me, if you had your choice of which Mech to make from the inner (...) (17 years ago, 18-Dec-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: AZOTH - close combat mech
 
(...) Ah, building a mech bay is a great suggestion. Hopefully my future builds will be able to stand on their own (!), but if not, this would definitely be the way to go for a better presentation. Thanks Eric! Dennis (17 years ago, 27-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: AZOTH - close combat mech
 
(...) Thanks Travis. Glad you like the mech and its photos. Yes, it is unable to stand on its own. I need to learn more about joint capabilities and also improve my building so that things don't end up being so heavy. :) Dennis (17 years ago, 27-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Recluse Assault Mech
 
Hey, coolness. I never made anything in those colors before, I like it. The way you built the cabin on top is really makes this design for me. Like it can take on action from all sides. (Lol, sorry j/k) As always, your technical battle readouts are (...) (17 years ago, 25-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Re: AZOTH - close combat mech
 
Hello! Clean and neat design! I see you also rebuilt the legs and feet. Maybe instead of a stand, you could create a lite mech bay to prop it up. Just a thought. Wow those are some jet boosters! Wonderful photography. I liked seeing the presentation (...) (17 years ago, 25-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Recluse Assault Mech
 
Hello, All I've been busy again! I decided to rebuild an old design...The Black Widow. However in the course of building, it quickly became apparent that I had a completely new design on my hands. I present to you , the Recluse (Tarantula probably (...) (17 years ago, 25-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: AZOTH - close combat mech
 
(...) I don't normally follow the .mecha group, but I saw this model posted on the LUGNET front page, and I have to say that I really, REALLY like this mech. Visually, it just seems to me to capture that anime spirit really well. (It makes me think (...) (17 years ago, 23-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  AZOTH - close combat mech
 
(2 URLs) Full gallery> <url=(URL) Flickr> Hooray for Thanksgiving holiday builds. This uses a basic click joint frame (based on Izzo's and Nnenn's click joint frames), which was a pain due to my blocky style of building and resulting heaviness. Next (...)
