Questions and comments welcome as always.

Jon, I really like this mecha. The legs in particular look very well done. I also appreciate the action shot. It reminded me of Megaman, which is totally cool!

I just wish the pics were a bit brighter. Perhaps you could increase their brightness in a photo-editing program?


First let me say, OmG! I was wondering if I was ever gonna a build anything you liked well enough to post about it. You honor me sir! I’ve been watching what you have been posting on the net since 2000. Second, believe it or not, those are lightened from the original shots...hmm maybe we’ll have to try again. Of course, I’m sure the color scheme didn’t help with the photography much...black, dark grey (bley and old ),and dark blue. Looks Hella cool in person though!

If you would like to check out my other stuff, here’s my brickshelf library.

Hope to see more stuff from you!

thanks again,

Haha!

Well, don’t think that just because I don’t reply to posts that I don’t read them. I check LUGNET and Brickshelf every day. 90% of the mecha stuff that is posted I read and look at. So trust me, I have been following your work, and the work of others.

I have been through your BS gallery, and my favourites are the Talon, Ursine Cub and Strider. Some of your mecha have similar colour schemes (the red ones), so it’s kinda difficult for some of your stuff to catch my eye and attention.

I think you have a lot of good ideas, but you spread them out too much over a whole bunch of models. I would like to see you commit yourself to a larger mecha that incorporated all the knowledge you’ve already grasped about mecha construction.

However, it seems like you keep most of your models together, so your part supply must be dwindling with each model. I know I can’t build more than one model at a time; my collection just isn’t large enough. If your existing models are holding you parts hostage, than FREE them, i.e. take’em apart!

Anyways, I’ll try to reply more often. But don’t hold me to it. :-)
