Oooh, "Icewulf" sounds cool. Hear that Snow Daddy! You'd better watch out! e (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mecha Modules
 
(...) With enough plate click hinges, I think you could pull it off, but not on a model this size. You'd need to have it be 2-3x larger in order for hinges to look right. -D (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) Great comment! I'll keep this in mind as I work on the other models. As someone who doesn't compromise, it won't be easy, but I'll work on it. (...) Yep. As I mentioned before-IH probably would have been a better looking model if I wasn't so (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) From you, Eric, that's a mighty high compliment. Thanks! (...) Like Bryce, my take on it is this: if no one else is using the part, then I will. That was a BIG influence on this model. (...) Thanks (...) That was the one thing I could have (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
I always say, building is a series of compomises. If I set out to build something and I know I want it to have 10 cool design things and when I'm done with the project and I've managed to get 8 or 9 of those cool things in to the model, then I know (...)

  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) Hunched over or on all fours?!? Sorry, but the wing weight in a position like that would crumple the torso before I could even pose IH. Without wings, it might be able to perform a sumo squat, but that's about it. With stronger arms, it should (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
Whoa, I've said it before and I'll say it again: This thing is NUTS! What I like about it and your building style is, the way you use really wierd parts and peices. There are some design techniques that are really cool. The building experience write (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) I felt you guys needed to know why this project took so very long to finish. Mindset really is everything. (...) Here's the deal. The body is quite large-larger than anticipated, but it's the hips that make the body so huge. The arms weren't (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) Hey, it's your opinion and I can certainly respect that. The colorscheme is one that just doesn't translate into photographs very well at all and I'll freely admit that it's the darkest creation I've ever built. From the knees to the toes (...)

  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) Looks like there've already been some comments about the proportions on this guy - it took me a little while to figure the thing out. It looks a little strange standing on two legs, but that's just because you've matched the proportions and (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
Woohoo! Go Dave! I was wondering where Invictus went. I really loved hearing the build story though. This mecha/beast is sweet. I love the huge body and then the small t-rex arms coming out the side. It makes it look much more beastish than if it (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Female Mecha MOC: Raresa-Meitsu
 
Wow, Stuart you are so good at using very small pieces in small numbers and making them look so good. What gets me about this one are all of the perfectly placed pieces all over the place that are small, but all add to give it perfect shape. (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
(...) If at first you don't succeed... maybe you should start all over. In my humble opinion, this thing is ugly. I really don't like it at all. The color scheme doesn't work for me, the upper-legs are way to short and thin and they lack details. (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Female Mecha MOC: Raresa-Meitsu
 
Since I didn't hear it from our friend Eric...DANG! That's sweet! Seriously, I love the way your female mecha are lithe, tender, slender-almost fragile looking. It's a tough thing to pull off and not actually have them be fragile. Kudos to you for (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: critique?
 
Brian, This is a fantastic variation on Gla Gla's armature! You've enhanced his basic design and made it about as sleek and lovely as humanly possible. Using red as your main color really worked for this model. Great job! -Dave (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Invictus Horriblus- 'The Unconquerable Horror'
 
I'll subtitle this: 'If at first you don't succeed...' Post mod pics: (URL) is a Long term project that lasted close to two two years partly due to structural flaws and partly due to a lack of parts in the needed colors. Brown (Bone/feather), Dark (...)

  *NEW* LEGO brick-ish Transformers by Hasbro -- What's the deal?
 
Hello all, Well I was just doing a quick read of online news. I had not been to www.allspark.com, a Transformers fan site, recently so I brought up the page. After scrolling down I stumbled across this header: Wave 5 Product Catalog Scans - May 22 (...)

No, very young (for a robot)-- good eye! also, does raresa-meitsu mean anything in english (...) It's not a name I (...) (21 years ago, 24-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

i wonder if it could be made with something other than chain links? click hinges perhaps? (...) (21 years ago, 24-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
