Kyle,

This is a great Mech! I really like the compactness of it. It just has a look of sturdiness and that translates to power. Good job.

I really liked the rounded missile bins. I think that is quite inovative to use half a cylinder. It may not be “realistically functional” but it looks awesome from the front and from behind.

I dig the cockpit. When I first looked at the Mech as a whole, I thought the cockpit was static but the to see it open up, was a real surprise. I think I liked that the most. Back to comment one, it really shows the compactness of the MOC.

The soldiers are a great touch too.

Thanks.

Brian
