Well an awesome model deserves an awesome reponse, IMHO! ;-) When I said nice colour sceme, I meant it was excellent how you followed the real Gundam colour sceme. Plus, I'm amazed when anyone makes something out of so much white, since I could (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Gosh, thanks Mladen. Really, I just combined the look of two of my favorite Gundams: Tallgeese and DoubleX. I was trying to capture the knee-look of Tallgeese, but I wasn't quite able to do it because I don't have enough white plates. :^/ I (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

WOW! Without a doubt this is one of the best mecha I have ever seen, Mark. Simply fantastic! The legs are IMO the best, best Gundam legs I have ever, ever seen. Your use of parts is extraordinary. The weapons are beautiful as well, and I love the (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Well, heck, I think we should all thank Colin Gutierrez for the finger design. I got the idea from him. :^) You gotta buy something like one of the Arctic sets to get those li'l snake-things.

(...) That is spectacular!! I think(and I maybe wrong), but I think that's the largest mecha I've seen built in real bricks. I just love the size of it. That chain of ammo is very nice and the knee joints are just beautiful. My favorite part are the (...) (25 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
