Elroy, I've been trying to find time to post about your debut MOC. I like this
one so much, I saved it for last just to keep some attention on it a bit longer.
You've catptured something that so many builders miss: the ability to shape the
form. This isn't the most impressive design I've ever seen...not by a longshot,
but it shows that you've studied what it takes to build mecha and that's
probably the most important thing you could take away from this experience.

Build again. Try to overcome some of the problems you've spotted with this
design. Work it 'til you own it. I remember my first mecha: Xerxes

In my mind, this is an awful design compared to the shuff I've produced lately,
but it was a starter project to allow me to figure out 'the mechanics of mecha'.
Think of this one as your start and work from there!
