I really like this mech Eric. When I first saw it I was able to make out your style immediately but it looked so much more "human like" and proportional that I had to study it. I agree with comments made earlier exept for the hands. I think they are (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

This is Tatsumaki Ver.2 This is a remake of the original using parts from 6 Titan XP sets that I have. I think this remake is by far better than the original. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Marcus Clancy Brickshelf Gallery (URL) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hey Eric, Rad! It's cool to see two builder's styles come together and produce a hybrid that still contains the flavors of both. Bravo! I like the fact that Ryetsumaki's skin is totally you, Eric, but the proportions of Marcus' frame pushed you in a (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

wow, wow, wow. OK, big props to Marcus for supplying the frame and the inspiration. Eric, this is an awesome build, especially for an all nighter.
