Wow, I really like the Space configuration of the Tyr. Very nice! Your li'l hoverbike thingy is really cool too. ~Mark (25 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Small site update
 
I uploaded a page for my Tyr model at http:/www.geocities....piter/7021 I'm aware that the coloration probably impossible at the moment. Regardless of that, please LMKWYT. Travis Dickinson (25 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks Ben, I'm rather proud of the Cassowary's toe design using the brown angle joints from the destroyer droid. What did you think of its rotating side- cannons? Todd (25 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Re: New mecha (sort of)
 
Well, if you're going to be so persistent on the praise, I guess I'll have to drop the modest :) But all joking aside, thanks again. As for the hatch, the original mecha was built around the hatch. I think I was curious as to how I could use that (...) (25 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New mecha (sort of)
 
Thanks. It's gone through some additional modifications, but I'm not sure these are permanent. Regardless, I'm pleased with the overall look of the model. However, I think my model pales in view of the awesome designs that have been showing up. (...) (25 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mecha (sort of)
 
Nice additions Travis! I think I like this mecha even more than the first time I saw it on your website and slowly went through the .DAT file. I think your mecha has one of the coolest torso's I've ever seen; I just love the hatch and the lights and (...) (25 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  New mecha (sort of)
 
This started off as my Soldier design with feet added. I then added stuff to the torso, which led to changes to the legs. I keep making changes to it, which I suppose is a the drawback and advantage to having the model actually in your hands. Once (...) (25 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Gundam GP02A
 
Well, I decided to give up on the shoulder boosters and the huge shield and just post my latest gundam as is. It's 15.5" tall, and very stable, even more so than my Zaku (which was only 12" tall). To see the GP02A, go to (URL) You have to scroll (...) (25 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Three new mecha!
 
(...) Steering assembly parts? How does that work? I cannot tell from your photos. Also which axis does the hip turn on? (ie; does it only provide turn out?) And finally do the gears on the back turn the legs out? Bryce McGlone (25 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
