Eric! I just have to say that that was the most fun I've had in a while. Seeing your mecha was such a mindtrip! I know I'll be kicking myself for years to follow, leaving my camera at home that morning... Well, I hope that certainly isn't the last (...) (23 years ago, 21-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Stuart, Wow! Very nice mecha. This one really reads as solid planes and form. The shoulders are particularly well done. I really like that the overall shape isn't lost in greeblies (sp). I look forward to the "weirder" one. Later, Bryce (...) (23 years ago, 19-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Mladen, Thanks! Yes, I find that the exaggeration makes up a lot of the personality, expecially at small sizes.
