(...) That's pretty neat. The posablility is nice, and those antenna compounds are truly revolutionary. (...) Wow! That is awesome. There is a lot to like on this MOC... particullarly the cockpit and the weapons array on the top. The way the (...)

  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Hey Jamie, the arms are actually pretty highly posable. the sholder rotation is the best and it is strong. The elbow needs a little saran wrap on the end of the anntena ball to make it nice and stiff, but now it can hold those huge guns! As for (...)

  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Thank you David! I made the upper arms short and made the forearms elongated as sort of my homage to the Bubblegum Crisis suits. The only thin I wish I could do is make the "hands" more real looking but at such a small scale, well... The enclosed (...)

  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Chris, I am please that you like both of the creations! The antennas were an evolution in mecha suit design and I think I have reached the end of that evolution, I want to build something different. The suit mounting went through oh, about 5 (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Hey Mark! I think support equipment makes all the mecha that much better! Mecha needs back-up and want to build it! The engine was the actual start of the whole thing, I sorta built around it. Thanks! out (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
WOW! Thats some cool stuff Tony. Like I said in another post, I'm not much of a exo suit kinda guy but that looks cool. How posable are the arms? Like do they stay fairly tight or are they playable at all? Keep up the good work. Jamie (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Hey TK, nice hardsuit. I tried using the technic bush parts for the arms when I was buiding my PA003 but I found them too short since I doubled up the levers. They do look great on your hardsuit. I really like what you have done with the transport (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Dude, I love the carrier. Not so often do we see support equipment, I love it! Particuarily the engine, the chute from bed of truck to interior, and the greeblies on the exterior are very nice. I like your use of the antennes for arms and legs. I (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: OFW IV "WolfSpyder" and the FCS ESAT "SpyderNest"
 
Wow. This is really cool stuff - the research is evident in the believability of the backstories. And the mecha suits are cool - great use of antennas. The coolest thing to me is simply the way the suits mount to the SpyderNest. That just strikes me (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

The suit! Wild it is! nifty,compact, hard suit tech. Very cool. I spy handle bars, axle bushings and more. The transport with the shot of the suits are really neat. Some good building to heal the soul. e (22 years ago, 12-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

oh my goodness gracious. your exosuit and carrier are simply fantastic. well-thought out idea. kinda reminds me of the colonial marine APC (a la "aliens"). glad to see you used gray (gray is our friend) for the color scheme. very military. i noticed (...)

Nice job on the Hardsuits! I like your use of the handlebar piece on the chest. The transport is also cool, looks very chunky. (22 years ago, 12-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
