(...) Thanks Marco. I suppose that the moral of the story is never skimp on joints - in the long run making sacrifices for more sturdier joints is going to make the model more dynamic and thus better. And yeah I'm very happy with it's posability! (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

The AA guns I love too (even more than the rocket pod yet funnily enough the guns were a lot less effort) and they do depress to about -5 degrees although the (...)

Hi all, My final entry. Hitachi Heavy Industries Iron Mecha (2 URLs) BS gallery> I reconfigured the concept art into a crane after people commented that the side cockpit (what I started with) looked like a crane.

Hi Zac, great job! I like the legs and feet. The details and the guns. But most of all I like that look of this bulky body heading straight foreward to blow away everything that's in the way.

Third update: I switched themes from a construction type mecha to a military one simply because I'm running out of time and think a crane is harder to build than a big gun. Also I couldn't figure out a good use for the "missle pods". So here's the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hey Zac, this is a fantastic little mech. The greebling keeps it plenty busy and looks like a tank. The roundness of the legs sold me. The body looks a bit boxy for the size of it, but again, as a tank isn't too much of a hit. I like your variations (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

snip (...) snip why not use the 3l axle with stud (with the stud part) sandwiched between two 1x2 technic bricks. very stiff and gives you a 2l worth of axle to attach to. Mark (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Actually, sometimes the whole turret, including the 2x2 round brick, slips off the axle peg. So, I don't know if the 4x4 round brick would work any better. But it's a good suggestion nonetheless, and I regret not trying it out. The real (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) OK--I'd wondered if you were using the soft-plastic-rod stiffening technique in this somehow. Is there no way to use the 4x4 round brick, which also has a center axle groove? It might hold the guns better, though I don't know what effect it (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
