  Re: who needs inspiration?
 
(...) Havent played the game yet, but looks pretty nice. I work at a videogame store and read something about that game and saw some screen shots. Im still considering picking up the GBA hardware, its a little spendy. -John (23 years ago, 30-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New Mecha
 
(...) Awesome Mecha! Awesome colorscheme! Gee, for a fourteen year old, you sure are talented. You must have a lot of money too. Do the legs move back and forth at the hip section? or just outwards? (23 years ago, 30-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  last bot of the year
 
Hullo all! Me and junior were playing Capcom's Tech Romancer and he wanted to build some 'bots in that style. Here's the result of our collaboration: (URL) very 'old-school' Japanese robot styling, using old-school building techniques for the most (...) (23 years ago, 29-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New mecha: Minotaur
 
(...) Yep, sure am. However did you guess? ;-) (...) Thanks Sun. Now that I think, it does have similar proportions to lots of McFarlane's stuff. About the torso; I tried to do something a little different than before. I'm finding myself kind of (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: who needs inspiration?
 
(...) Heh.. your talking about "Mech Platoon" right...? You need to be more specific, then people will understand you better, k? -John (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mecha: Minotaur
 
(...) Ha ha, I take it your in college. Missed a lot of meals to obtain goods but hey as long as were still breathing right? (...) large spawn action figrures like creech and overtkill. My favorite part is definitely the upper torso, lot of (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mecha: Minotaur
 
(...) Thanks Bobby. I got Mavica FD87. I like it, but I still yearn for that manual focus. I haven't figured out how to best take extreme closeups yet. (people in .publish.photography, any help here?) (...) Yeah, this is a far cry from your usual 2 (...) (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.publish.photography)
 
  Re: New mecha: Minotaur
 
(...) The pictures look great, which camera did you get? (...) Lovely, this is really something (but then again you alrady know that). Sorry I can't offer more comments, but I really don't have any expertise in origami mecha. (...) So this is what (...) (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  New mecha: Minotaur
 
Hi all, To celebrate my new digital camera (Santa didn't bring me one, so I splurged bigtime and went to get my own today. That means Ramen noodles and Kool-Aid for the next 6 months or so. ;-) I took some pics of the Minotaur. This is of the (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  who needs inspiration?
 
For all of you who like building various futuristic war machines and various four-legged mecha there is a game for the gba that has a very large amount of inspiration pieces. Those who don't want to buy a gba and the game can just get the emulator (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: all my mecha
 
(...) I really like the ball joints and my first mecha design. I used 6 per mecha. The mecha was small enough that a single ball joint was enough to hold the body up. but occasionly when the pose is extreme or too much off ballence weight is applied (...)

  The New mecha I...built, but can't load picture of
 
I have created a new mecha the pelvis section is only 1 stud wide. It looks awesome. I'm thinking of a name but won't ask for suggestions till you see what it looks like. If I got a dinky web cam, would I be able to take a good picture of it? (...) (23 years ago, 23-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: all my mecha
 
about an hour after i posted i had this great idea to use the ball joints from the legs and arms of the old throw bots. normally i would never mutalate pieces like this but my dogs think they make great chew toys, anyway I just use them in (...) (23 years ago, 23-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Welcome to LUGNET Jacob. Of course I am still generally a new name in mecha building here, new compared to builders like Mladen, but nonetheless I usually display my mecha here. About the reliable hip joints, that is something I have been (...) (23 years ago, 23-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New mech: Sensei Trainer
 
(...) Bravo, bravo. I think you've got the essence of something here. Barebones model. I particuarily like the "eye" What I find most intriguing about this guy is the potential. Think, not only is it a trainer but build on it a little and you have a (...) (23 years ago, 22-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Evangelion construction
 
(...) You can use the old Throwbot gear boxes. Two put together and then click in a technic beam on one end. My Q model uses this in the legs and hips giving it slender and strong legs. Someone suggested to me that the design would benifit an EVA (...) (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
