Jas, Kick butt slope usage. I was posting earlier that you need the backpack and a weapon or two. Soren has some good gun ideas, especially with his more recent NemoII. Also check out David Rabahan's BS folder. He has a folder named "weapons" that (...) (19 years ago, 6-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I don't know if I can give you much constructive criticism, because so far, I like pretty much everything I see. :-) The only thing that looks off a bit are the forearms. They look short.

Looking good - not really saying ZZ to me, but that's just fine, because I hate the ZZ Gundam :).

Sorry I can't help you with suggestions on where to go next. I just wanted to chime in and say that is a very clean design so far, from what I can see.

Magnificent. Suggestions? pfff. That's an awesome Mech. Back pack? Should be really nice to make. How? I'm sure you'll manage given the natural flow of the rest of the Mecha. I'd say just follow that. Great work! e (19 years ago, 5-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hi all, Just thought I'd post a WIP of my latest Mecha. Its been a while since I've built anything and I have now got a pretty good storage system for my bricks, so it was a joy building this.
