Amazing! There is so much to say about this build.

Where do I start?

The Head:

Wow, talk about grills!
The shape of the back of the head is cool and you hinged the dishes for the
eyes! I like it. Only a face a mother or Mecha builders would love!

The Shoulders:

Large dishes on the upper shoulders, very cool!
Uses Technic Throwbot Gear Boxes internally! Super awesome!
The details, wow.

The Chest:
Get out of town! That is so unique!
Instead of a sculpted chest, you have raw details directly on the front.
Very bold!
I see from the work in progress pictures that you changed the entire chest.
Amazing.

The Side to side bending:
No way! Shogun! Watch out!
Yet another amazing triumph. Wow you are a good builder!
How did you like building all that technic in to the body?
Very functional, like a real machine.

The Hips:
WOW. You managed to get all the movements in that space using this set up.
I love it! Clan Snowleopard!

The Upper Legs:
Check out that detail! Clips, rounded parts, grills, details and more details!
Amazing.

The Lower Legs:
No way! that section just above the ankles is so very nice looking.
You have all kinds of building techniques going on there, that is so very well
done! Bravo.

The Feet:
WOW. You did it! A foot that bends but still puts the weight on the "ball" of
the foot. You go down in history my friend! I also like how you have wing plates
in there, reminds me of your style.

The Back:
Just as well made as the front!
The read access for the pilot is sweet! Direct influence from Shogun?
Or does the mechanics in the center of the chest dictate this set up.
I'd imagine the center of the machine is loaded with spinal mechanisms, so you
probably had a tight fit. I see from the work in progress pictures that you also
changed this significantly from the final version. Amazing!

Over all:

I am very impressed!
I only would suggest in the future, if you could get some of the same mobility
that you have on the rest of the body, in to the arms that would be good. Either
way this is a great build, loads of details everywhere, lots of cool building
techniques and a fantastic level of technical function.

That's how to build a Mech.

Great work! Well worth the wait!

Now, a question to the rest of Lugnet:

Why is this post top story with NO highlights and NO replies?
You people ought to stop lurking so much and stop taking peoples MOCs for
granted. Ya'll want to look but never say anything. That is ridiculous.
I am very dissapointed to see Marco work so hard only to have the rest of you
look and not say anything. Like Mecha is the great voyuer of Lugnet.

I know his post is early still, however I know it will be treated the same, you
all look but have nothing to say.

I say look again and really look this time. Look inside yourself and figure out
what is wrong here.

Sorry Marco. I had to say something. Your work deserves more than Top Story with
no substance and no replies.

Let him know what you think, there is more than enough building techniques here
to satisfy.

Thanks for sharring Marco, great work.

Hi, About the mecha, I concur with Eric, that the greebling really shows off this mecha. Though I have to be honest, there is something about the face which seems off - I think the eyes could be a little more forward facing. It is also really worth (...)
