Sun, The EVA is fannnntastic! Really, really nice. The scale is perfect, the execution deceptively simple. It has just the right amount of shaping and articulation to make it 'realistic' (in the sense that it evokes the original design) and fun to (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
