Get out! First time to do arms, hands, and head? I could have sworn some of
your other mecha had them.
|
My Power Armors did, but they didn’t fit a whole fig. There might be an old one
in my b’shelf gallery, but nothing I posted here.
| |
Anyways, for “firsts” your mecha look quite good. Better than good. In
particular the red mecha reminds me somewhat of Karim Nassar’s
Panther. Way cool!
:-D
|
I went back and looked at the Panther through your link. I hadn’t seen it in a
long time, but I see I really emulated a lot of the style without realizing it.
Karim has spiffed-up his site since I was there last.

I think they look great and have
all the requisites to make them “Wanzer”-style mecha, except for the scale.
They just seem too compressed. I almost want to see them with longer
appendages. However, it is still amazing that you got to fit them into that
dropship. Well done.
|
Thanks, I kind of like doing the compressed scale, but it does restrict movement
to some extent.
| |

I’ll acknowledge that the color schemes aren’t as tight as I’d like, due to
parts availability, but otherwise I’m happy with how these turned out.
|
On the contrary, I think your colour schemes this time around are far more
focused and realistic. This is something I struggle with all the time;
whether to go for a very rigid, clean tripartite colour scheme, or for a more
realistic but chaotic, varied colour scheme. I think you struck a nice
balance, especially with the grey mecha.
|
Glad you liked the gray/tan/rust color scheme. I really wanted to try using the
rust color somehow. I had to add the black due to parts necessity, which is
what bothered me.
Thanks, Mladen!
