Okay,
For fear of repeating that which was said before, I did prefer The
Cub. However, I think some subtle contrasting colours might have
brought out the detail more (not quite with Soren on the blacktron
Black and Yellow look). Maybe some dark-stone might be appropriate.
The use of the swords accross the head is good use of parts.

This was an on purpose all black build. Thanks. The Katanas were the only thing
that seemed right.

I also think that if you are going for the bear thing (and I know this
is repeating what others have said), that the torso needs to be wider
- even a little rotund. The current shape comes accross as much more
humanoid than ursine.

It's a name play, not a name sake! Though I'll probably have to build an ursine
styled Biomechanoid. Remember that movie "Prophecy"? With the big mutant bear?

When you say loose the design - does that mean you are selling them
without the instructions to rebuild them (And without having taken
copies for yourself)? Hmm...

Well since I don't use LDRAW (which is dumb of me, because I think it is so
awesome) I do not have the design documented except for the head which I
rendered in Lego Digital Designer. The design is stored in my head.

The models are for sale complete along with their own Mech Bay Dens.

Anyway - thanks still for sharing eric.

Thank you!

What are you building next?

I should share pics of the Technic Robot I am building.
I think you would like it.
It will be Jama's brother. (Not a copy, just another Mindstorms Robot I mean)

I think even then, the transition from The Cub to Black Bear might merit a bit of beefing up - or even the emergence of some weapons, although I understand you dont normally do weapons.. (...)

(...) I remember that movie! It creeped me out as a kid and I'm bummed it hasn't shown up on DVD yet. It'll probably look cheesy as heck, but would be fun to see again. The only thing I can still remember clearly is that at some point they fish a (...) (19 years ago, 31-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
