thanks, bro. the legs were the first component i worked on. in fact, the whole creation was built around the legs. it took awhile to come up with the right shape. my first attempt was a couple of years ago and its failure led to my “rotgeist”.
  
The feet are well done. Compound slopes on their sides huh? nice.

the feet took awhile to do. what i am most pleased about is the fact that the heel and the rest of the foot rotate on the z axis independently, thus allowing for the incorporation of the click-hinge instead of the ball-joint.

   You might want to try adding just a little contrast to your photos.

i actually messed around with the levels to come up with just the right color and contrast. obviously, i lack a photographic eye. besides, the original pics kind of came out crappy at the get-go.

I enjoyed
   looking through them all.



The poses are teriffic! wowowowow. Thank you so much for sharing. Hey first Mech built in the new place? Back in the saddle as they say.

true. i actually started this mecha in june while at my old house. but i did most of the designing and building at my new house. unfortunately, it still takes me eons to build and complete a mecha due to work and family life. perhaps my next one will take less time. glad you enjoyed it. hearing praises from you always makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside (in a strict platonic sense, of course).
  
yours,
