Yo, This is Shogun. Deep Link if needed.

A while back I posted a chassis that I was working on, here. Well since then the arms went through one full rebuild, the legs three full rebuilds, the body had one minor surgery, and a multitude of general goofs and corrections. It’s been a long three weeks at one work day per week.


A few points of interest.
* 22 (yes, you read right, twenty-two) worm gear joints
* Height varies but figure around 2’ tall
* Preplanned break points for storage, shipping and general ease of handling
* Missles, big ones, small ones, lots of em.
* A big rifle called the KG Hippy Squisher (I’ll let you figure out KG is)
* Not necessarily stable but very posable
* There is a hidden cockpit in the back. No engine on this one, two reasons, wieght and space. The cockpit action took up more space than I’d like but it turned out really cool.
* Yeah, it’s fun to play with


I’m gonna try a MOC page for this. so as soon as it gets moderated look for some insight to come forth there as well.

Enjoy Shogun mates! PLMKWYT

Wow! This mech is soooo awesome! Just amazing work...I can’t find a thing to criticize... Just really fine work. The shape of the head almost reminds me of something I would see on one of Sophie’s bots...almost...

The mech looks so clean, yet so complex - I like the fact that so many of the gears and shocls are visible.

Once again, great work!

(...) Thanks. I really didn't mean to make a Sophie head, it just kind of ended up that way. I started with the eyes and then covered it with that blueish canopy. I liked that so much the rest of the head kind of came together. (...) Thanks Chris! (...) (20 years ago, 7-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
