ah,welcome to mecha bliss! now that you are aware of the intricacies of
mecha-building, you can now see the lure of it. the whole idea is to refine
your skills, with each passing creation, until you reach a point where moc's
take on a life and style of their own. i'm still working on that as we speak.
now on to your moc: first of all, the flourescent highlights are a very orginal and creative idea. they look cool, especially next to that black light. however, at the same time they detract from the overall design of your mecha. i see you went with the new click hinges. those are excellent for larger mecha. i really like the squatting pose, but your mecha still seems very rigid. the hardest thing to get right on a mecha are the proportions. you have done well in that area for your first time. i also dig the "claws" on the feet.
overall, you did a fine job for your first mecha. keep it up, and do a lot of
research to improve your skills.
