Well, since it’s just a reproduction, I’ll take the opportunity to bring some fresh observations on the design to the table.

Frankly, I feel no love here. The black soaks up all the detail, and from what I can see the proportions are pretty far off human standard in a really unappealing way, especially the hands. The control panels as eyes also lack definition, and only with the lack of color in the rest of the machine do they stand out at all.

A couple of those Blacktron triangle wedge slopes and some more yellow all around would really help make this less of a reporduction and more worth of a separate post, and it’d be a great way for you to practice more complex color schemes. Bits of the Gundam Mark II and GM Quel designs could also be adapted to improve it.

Also, I’m pretty sure that advertising the thread in .marketplace in the MOC post isn’t what the inimitable Rosco had in mind. Just sayin’.
