Hi All,
Here’s a smallish
general purpose work mech I built over the Christmas break. It was a
relatively quick build for me - completed in one afternoon session. It’s also
about the most stable and solid mech I’ve built.
I wouldn’t normally build such spindly arms, but I knocked these up as an
experiment, and they somehow seem to work, so I left them. I think the feet
are too big though.

Cheers,

nice-looking mech, allister, though i wouldn’t call it “smallish”. it looks to
be more medium-sized to me. you did a nice job making this look very
“utilitarian” by using the warning lights and the smoke stacks. i also really
like white on a mech, but it seems to me that yellow and black would suit your
mech the best (call me “traditional”). posability looks sound and i also really
like the four-fingered hands. one thing, though: “WHERE”S THE HEAD!!??”--just
kidding. it is a nice reminder that not all mechs need to look “humanoid” and
that a head is nothing more than an aesthetic feature just waiting to be blown
right off the shoulders. well done!
