  Re: Mecha Beast Heads
 
Stuart, Thanks for the compliments! All four had the basic design underneath and I've essentially tried to come up with different details that were inherent in the character traits for each one. Yeah the black stands out among them and it may not be (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Another MH for y'all
 
(...) Soren- I really like the proportions of this mech as compared to the other MH (I know you said its being reworked). The shoulder design is great and the head configuration is one I have not seen before. I too like the small grilles and rods as (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: It Lives Again!!! (MOC: Metal Gear Rex)
 
(...) Whoa O.O Very cool. I've always loved Rex, and your original model's been my favorite rendition. This new one just fleshes it out more and brings better proportions in. Sweet.

  Re: Another MH for y'all
 
I've got to say that I love this one, especially the shoulder armor detailing, but I do wonder if it's built as a model or as a posable work of art. It's tough to discern exactly what the joint tech in your MH's is. Detail pics? All in all, I'd say (...) (21 years ago, 24-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
