Thanks for the replies and suggestions Keith and Frank. I was orignially trying
to copy an Armored Core mech but I ran into some problems and strayed from the
original design. The boxy thing on its right shoulder is a missile pack, but I
didn't go into too much detail on it. I doubt I will make any more changes to
this mech as I am currently working on another project, but I will definetly
take your suggestions into account on my next mech.
