Agreed. And it's refreshing to see a departure from the norm.

Thanks! Something I really did pay attention to was consistency of form. Once
I write my story you'll see that my particular brand of mech is more like the
step between treaded tanks and the super mechs like the Gundam. I wanted
essentially a single-pilot tank that could be inserted into uncharted,
uncertain terrain and come out on top. Treads are limiting, after all. I'm
working on building in a design logic, I guess.
As for my story, I'm kinda stalling. I just got back on the Gundam model train
and I need to burn my fuse a bit there before I get back to my Lego fixes.
Keep up the great work, Mladen.
