| | | | | (...) -Snip- Wow! Not the typical MechBay - this one feels sleeker and smaller, and the use of color seems brighter and more vibrant. The green is especially nice - we don't see a lot of green MOCs these days. The green/sandgreen mix is also well (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Wow, Eric. At this rate, we'll have to name a moonbase plat after you. Sophie Mecha Tracts, or how about Eric's Mecha Park Add. Wouldn't that be a cool legal? Yeah, I live at Lot 21, Sophie's WhoopAss Mech Farm Add. But I digress. Great job as (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | I'd say this is your 3rd best mechbay yet. The reason I think this is because it is very focused on a particular idea, and successfully executes it. Except for those weird X-pods and straps, this moonbase is incredibly "lean" and to the point. As (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
