Hi.
This is my first attempt at building a multiped mecha. Designed to meet the

The C-55 has a heavy armament; two heavy Burst Cannons, four autocannons, one
rear heavy autocannon, two under-head mounted smoke launchers and a missile pod
carrying four to eight SASAMS.

i'm a real big fan of the multiped tank/modile gun platforms. this is really good work. the ball turrets add a nice amount of menace, and overall play up the "bristling with weapons" look. i just love that! the legs feel a wee bit on the thin (...) (20 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)
