| Here she is. My first attempt at a Gundam. (URL) I'm not completely happy with it yet. The arms look like they were thrown together in 15 minutes......which they were. It is also nearly impossible to get the thing to stand up. The ankles are pretty (...) (20 years ago, 25-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) -snip- Brayton, this is stunningly beautiful. The look and feel is Gundam. No doubt. The feet are superb. The legs look great, although, I don't see much knee bend. It still looks stellar. The chest is cool as is the head. Very cool. The arms (...) (20 years ago, 25-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Brayton, stunning moc for a first try. Much better than my first (and only) try at a Gundam style moc ((URL) Zion>). I like everything about it, except it looks as if it's been built in two or three different scales. Lemme explain. The legs (...) (20 years ago, 25-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Ooooh nice. I like the legs too, very well made. I agree with Chris, the whole thing doesn't really gel, but the individual parts are great. New arms would help, I think. All in all great job! Soren (20 years ago, 25-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Eric, thanks for your reply. The knees do bend to just about parallel with the floor.(I think you can see the click hinge in one of the rear pictures.) I agree that the hands don't fit. Do you know of anything just slightly larger than what I (...) (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Thank you Soren. I tried to make this thing completely studless. I think it looks so much better when it's smooth. I doubt I'll ever make anything with studs on it again. -Brayton (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Well, this is definately one of the better gundam models i have seen. I really like torso and all the crazy angles you included in it, as well as the beautiful studless design. The hips and legs are downright awesome. As a person who generally (...) (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Here are some slightly better pics. I completely redid the arms and beefed up the ankle joint, but I'm still stuck on the hands. This model is the perfect size to keep any hand I've seen from being proportionally correct. (2 URLs) Enjoy. -Brayton (20 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Now that's pretty. Great job on the arms, this version is perfect. And it's amazing how changing the arms makes the torso come into proportion. Everything looks nice there. The ankles are very good, but maybe the feet could be widened by a (...) (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
