   Hi all,

Introducing the “Shadow” Class of Mech:



The background story

Behind the scenes Extra

The Shadow is a light-medium class of mech mostly used for recon work. You can read further details on the above pages.

This post contains many firsts for me: My first general post on Lugnet, my first completed moc since my dark-age and my first mech. So all critique is welcome.

Hope you like it, Chris.

Welcome to LUGNET Chris!

Just as an aside, I remember visiting your main site a few years ago and checking out your superb T-34 page. I even downloaded some of the CAD files. Good job on them. :-)

Back to LEGO...

For a first mech, or first post dark-age MOC, for that matter, this is amazing. You show excellent attention to detail, not only in the technical aspects of LEGO construction, but also in more stylistic matters. I like your scattered use of silver and your simple, trans-piece covered weapon systems (lasers, guidance systems, missile warheads). The main colour scheme is good as well, and doesn’t look too busy. I also like how the stripped down, rationalized appendages convey speed and agility. The feet especially caught my eye. They just look so structural and practical, as opposed to fanciful, as seen far too often. It definitely seems like you put a lot of thought into this creation. Well done on all accounts.

Overall, this is really an auspicious first post and MOC. I hope to see more from you Chris!
