I’m very pressed for time but tried to do a couple lil snazzy Photoshop deals too.

Eat up!

Cool!

It’s nice to see you working with regular bricks again, Bryce. (not that I don’t like your Bionicle stuff, which I do)

I really like the legs and the chassis/thorax. Some of the pieces you use bring back fond memories, like the pod-racer fins and those cruciform plates with domes. The upper body is very nice, but seems a bit too big for the legs. Perhaps it’s just a little too wide. I dunno...

The missile launcher is wonderful, and could almost be a stand-alone weapon system for some kind of ground installation. Viewed from above, the way the gun is attached is kinda weird though. However, viewed from below, it actually looks good. Was that your intent, or did the joints necessitate the gun to be attached that way?

Anyways, I really hope to see more pictures of this mecha. I’d like to see what the interior of the cockpit and the backside look like.

Oh and this .gif is pretty darn cool! Nicely done Bryce.
