Thanks Joel! And, yeah mecha don't always have to be two legged and two armed.
That's why I like anime so much, because it shows such diversified mecha,
unlike Battletech.

BTW you're not such a bad military leader, your mecha, err... walkers, err...
striders, look very mass-production friendly. And they come loaded with all
those weapons, mmm...

Mladen Pejic, over and out!

Awesome mech, and a sweet idea! I tend to focus so much on space and desolate
battlefields water never enters the equation. I guess as a military leader I

Well my definition of mecha is: A mechanical vehicle that mimicks the • movements
of an organic object, by utilizing limbs and other special features.

I like your definition of a mech, BTW. If you look at the Gundam Wing mechs,
the Cancer submersible uses a propeller for movement (like your beaut) but
incorporates the claws and such to make it organic. I would even say your mech
goes a step further with the nice "fins" you've added.

Another great piece!

Joel
