(...) You like that one?? Go figure ;o) (...) I agree it is very hard to show the whole thing with pictures. I've noticed others having the same problem. Maybe some stop motion animation would help... Bryce (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

At the risk of sounding like a windbag I’d like to take a few seconds to thank (in no particular order) a bunch of people who inspire me to build mecha. I didn’t thank anyone when I posted for “02” because I was doing the dramatic story thing. I’d (...) (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
