(...) Thanks Dave. (...) Again, thanks. Mean is definitely one thing I was going for. (...) Yeah...I wish the battle droid parts were available in a lot more colors too. They're probably the most underestimated part that lego has made in the last (...) (23 years ago, 9-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Woah.... neato... a very nice small mecha. looks very articulate, lots of weapons too. Anyway I could care less about all that 35mm stuff, all I have is a 35mm camera. ~Sigh~ Anyway nice mecha and RANDOM ON! (...) (23 years ago, 9-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) You are excused. The emphesis on a fantastic design more than makes up for the blurry pics. (...) You succeeded beautifully. This is now my favorite mecha you've built so far. It's compact, looks positively mean, and has a pleasing shape to (...) (23 years ago, 9-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Beautiful! That is stupendous! I love it! it has such a smooth shape to it, all of the angles and curves flow together nicely, I really like this! the feet are awesome as well, and technic fig scale too! woohoo!

(...) The texture on this mech is great! Even for a mech of this size, there's a lot of little things going on to really enhance the detail. I like. Oh yeah grey and tan is definitely nice. Just wish I could get my hands on some more tan. sun (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Definitely like the whole technic fig hardsuit theme as well. Seeing these pics have inspired me to (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey very cool Chris! I really like it! It looks tough and ready to rumble, but delicate and fragile at the same time, neat! The big shoulder cannon is cool, I like that alot, but the fact that there is a pilot in there really soups it up! Great work (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks Stuart. That's basically what I did, just built the main frame/body, then "greebly'd" it up a lot. I wanted to simulate the inner workings showing in places and such. I'm really getting to love the grey and tan color scheme too. :-) (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks Bobby. (...) The plating for the cockpit is the head. You could do it in terms of eyes (this mech's sensors). The two space guns on the front (one with red 1x1 dot, one without) are the mech's sensors. Kind of jumbled tho...good pics (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey, All- Chris Maddisons' model, the Cypher, is currently the first entry in the mecha contest! Check it out at (URL) ! Also, I'll let Stuart's Bullfrog enter, as long as nobody else tries the "delayed post" entrys. I really like it! Ryan Wilhelm (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) This is a very nice piece. It is so densely packed that I didn't even notice the pilot right away. I like the sheer bulk of it-- incredibly massive on a small scale. And the colours are fab! stuart (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks GAMH. You have picked the right reference-- Shirow is always a big influence. His Landmates are so pared down and organic, though, it's a personal challenge to achieve in a rectilinear medium. thanks for your comments. stuart (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
