Never noticed the wheels on your mecha. The Heavy Gear PC game also implemented that idea. For those who don't know and are interested, here's info on the Mecha Domain's shutdown: (URL) Dickinson (URL) Pejic wrote: (cut) (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I forgot to mention just how much I love the way you detailed everthing to look like it's in nanofig scale. The 'stairway' and passageway to the right of the mecha do so much to reinforce the scale that you work at. Fantastic! -Dave (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
