This is sweet! and it's posable! As others have said the bold colours are very cool. You're so good at using bright colours really well. Yellow would never come up on a real mecha, but you make it look convincing. I like the torso alot, it gives it (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
