I'd like to apologise for the name. But my wife named it, and refused to stop calling it that, and now it's stuck. And without further ado: <-- (URL) --> <-- (URL) --> I never thought I'd get it done, but I'm happy with my model. And only my second (...) (19 years ago, 28-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) As obsessed as I am with building models that adhere strictly to the original art, I think breaking from concept designs and reinterpreting them can be a very good thing. I love the color scheme. It's just about impossible to beat tan and dark (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) That is out of the box. Lovin it. (oh ahem, I should put on the black coat) Amazing composition and smashing flavor, but will it be enough to be the top dog in IRON MECHA. Now's when it get's interesting doesn't it? Only four days left, what (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

It might have been nice if you could have some articulation at the shoulder, but then I guess (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) While you've managed to give this mecha quite an organic look, I can't help but feel that you've neglected the greebles a bit too much. As it is, the mecha almost looks like an animal rather than an organic machine. Also, while you don't need (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(lugnet ate my first reply, so here is a repost) I'm trying to figure this out... The ship comes in, unloads some containers, they are hoisted by a crazy crane into a pit.

Zac, What can I say, This is just a well executed mecha. I love the amount of detail in such a small package. It kinda reminds me of a Cicada from Battletech, that is, until you added the AA guns. :) Keep on building! Jon (19 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
