Welcome! for a first mecha, this is really wuite good. You have some really neat shapes going there, espeicially around the leg area. I like the rail gun as other's have stated, even if it was inspired by Mladen's MDP. Overall, this is a really good (...) (23 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
