Hey cool Joel, that looks really spiffy. I like the wings, that's a pretty clever idea you have there, The feet are well done as well. The greeblies on the back are sweet, as they go well with the cockpit area, which is waaaaaay too sweet! :-D Great (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Bobby, Well done! This is really nice, it has such a nice smooth shape to it, cool, I really like the engines on the back, very cool, they look sweet back there. I'm interested in your method of attaching the armour skirts, they are very well done, (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
