(...) Nice pose! This mech looks ready to kick some butt. The rifle is great. I like the wings/jetpack also. Are those throwbot joints on the ankles? If so does it stand well? Bryce (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Right-o. Made a couple of changes, took a bunch more pictures. Hopefully the arms look better now with the added texture and visual interest. (URL) (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Hm. I've been pondering this for a while, and I'm not sure the picture shows the arm well - it's certainly not just square. (Well, OK, the right forearm is - the left one has a gun mount on it that isn't really visible in this pic - it's in (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Brian, I was thinking of you this weekend when my new throw bot based shoulder joint wouldn't hold the weight of my new mech's arm. :-( I may have to take a closer look at your designs. The cockpit looks great, but those legs in the background (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

If I may make a suggestion: Put some detail on the arms so they don't look too straight and square. Nice head and torso, however. :^) ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
