Well dang! I’m glad you could tell my style apart from others!

I’ll second the comments about the back, I like the hoses, greebs and the
podracer fins on the legs and back. I also like the knee armor, although I
would suggest that you could replace the 1x2 brick-with-technic-hole with a
1x4 brick-with-technic-hole, stick technic half pins in the outside holes,
and stick a 1x4 tile across the side of the brick. That would cover up the
exposed black technic pin head, and break up the slab-side of the knee
armor--making it look more realistic.

hmmm, that actually seems like a really good idea. I do have some 1x4’s and alot
of pins hanging around, i think i’ll give your suggestion a whirl...

See, this is why mechs are so demanding, parts-wise. You need
every part in 2s, 4s, 8s, and (Heaven help you) 16s!
|
Ugh, tell me about it!

I also like how you mount the ball-socket brackets in the hip joint, I keep
meaning to try that, and never remember.
|
Yeah, i kind of came upon it “accidentally” one day, when i was trying to throw
together small multi rotation ball joints

I agree with your comments on the torso--I notice in Anime that the good-guy
mechs always have the large-limb, small-torso proportions, while the bad-guy
mechs are often have big pot-belly torsos, and skinny arms and legs. I
always try to slim down my torsos as much as possible.

Thats true, i mean, if my hayabusa and judge were to fight, the judge would HAVE
to be the big and bold Goliath , and the hayabusa would be the nimble and
skilled david.
I really appreciate your comments kyle. You always manage to give me something
that i can do right away with my models to make them better. Thanks alot!
