(...) You're so kind to your mech pilots, giving them a way to climb in and out of the cockpit! A well-armed mech, maxing out the medium weight class tonnage, this looks like one I'd pick to play in a video game (when do we get a MW5? It's been (...) (19 years ago, 11-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

The jointed feet really show the effectiveness of the concept: (URL) They seem to have forced the ankle joint halfway up the calf, which is a little weird, from a humanoid standpoint, but works for a mech. The waist and hips are a real worm gear (...) (19 years ago, 11-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

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 (...)

Nice. The Bley/Grey look works well on a mech. It gives it that metallic utilitarian look. This mech says it means business - and is design for close range destruction (with the large heavy weight arms - good for smashing), while having serious (...) (19 years ago, 9-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
