  Re: Two new creations, MP-2 Visage II and the Long Range Mecha Transport Vehicle (LRMTV)
 
Thanks Soren! (...) Thanks, I've been wanting to try this scheme for a while on a largish mecha but didn't have enough tan to make it look decent until now, but even still, there is a very skimpy amount of tan on this mecha. all the right ones in (...)

Hey Stuart, glad to see you back in business as well ;-) (...) Thanks! (...) Yeah I am in a way too, cuz there are so many possibilities with removable armour, but I don't want to go through all the frustrations again. (...) Thanks again Stuart! (...)

  Re: Two new creations, MP-2 Visage II and the Long Range Mecha Transport Vehicle (LRMTV)
 
Thanks Eric! (...) yeah the head is not at all similar to the old head, but I couldn't make the head the same way, without making the torso similar to the old visage, which I didn't want to do. The new head looks good I think though. (...) Thanks (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

G-Miest! I'm always in awe of how you make those Frame's and then layer the Armour all around! I enjoy seeing how you make Mecha. You have really got the removeable Armour technique down. The feet are interesting, as is the head. One other thing I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Even the head is almost devoid of studs, an incredible accomplishment on something that size. (...) I'm sorry to hear this-- you're the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey there G! I actually saw this before you posted it (I think it was friday...) That's a great mecha! The arms came out pretty well. How mobile are they?

Nice. I think the features were well worth the two-month wait. The color scheme is very nice, all the right ones in the right places. Take care Soren (22 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

dang, this mecha just makes me want to delve into the "studless" look even more. too bad tiles are so expensive at bricklink. very nice form, especially how the v-shape of the torso really accents the bulkiness of the legs and armor. i also like how (...)
