Well, that’s it for now, any feedback would be kindly appreciated!

Frank, your stuff just keeps getting better! I know nothing about the Front
Mission game, but I have a couple of Front Mission II figurines. I found them
at a comic book store on a clearance table, and I have them standing in my
building area for inspiration--they lend themselves well to rendering in Lego.
I likewise spotted Sugegasa’s stuff on Brickshelf, but I like your bulkier
rendering of the design better, and a very trick hip joint! I still haven’t
figured out the ankle.
Other stuff I liked:
-very space-efficient cockpit solution
-the shaping you did on the chest/head area
-the big baton--reminded me of when the Simpsons had a family therapy session
with those foam-rubber bats
-the missle packs, of course ;)
Suggestions:
-I think it might help the proportions if you could add some height by extending
the calves.
-I know the Front Mission mechs have hands, but I think a version of this mech
with much shorter upper arms and cannons in place of the lower arms would
look sweet, especially since you have the head/chest area working so well.
Thanks for posting.
