The Ryetsumaki


My first impression was “ugh, Sophie managed to take a new and cool frame, totally different than his traditional stuff, and make it look just like everything else he built...”

But, then I read Mark Neumann’s reply, which called attention to the features that intentionally mimicked your previous bots. Taking these comments into consideration, I took a second look, and got a very different interpretation.

It’s rather cute. It is like the child of one of your larger mechs. A mini-me, so to speak. Immediatly recognizable as a Sophie-bot, yet using totally different joint tech. Bravo with that.

Hey cool,I like that. Thanks.

   But now, how ‘bout another bot using the armature, going off into a totally new direction. Perhaps something like Soren’s stuff or any other japanese mecha-style. I think it would be great to see a Sophie-Anime Mech.

I really try not to copy themes but rather just build with the shapes I like to use. Look at it like this. I was sent a frame, I built a mech.

Where my head is really at is this:

I want to make a fully robotic cat. Using 4 Mana.

Plus, I don’t always know what I’m gonna build. Sometimes I just make things.


   Just my thoughts,

That’s cool, thanks for your feedback. I like slopes and polygons.
