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.

(insert kick ass mecha here)
Feeling a bit inspired are we? ;-)

The design is loosely based on the ZZ Gundam (saw it in Feb 2005 Newtype
Magazine) but I wasn’t too bothered about how alike it was. Head design was
copied from Kerouac’s SG because I haven’t managed to do one that looks half
as good! The frame is Rotational Click Joint and the majority of pieces come
from the five Exo Force sets I purchased (7700).

Overall sleek slope nice lines. The elbows seem weirded but hardly even worth
mentioning.

The problem now is I’m a bit stuck on where to go next, there are some areas
that need a little tweaking and thats where you good folks come into the
equation! Not sure what sort of backpack to go for, or to have one at all. So
any ideas, comments and critiques will be much appreciated, I think this is
the best thing I have made so far and with your help I want to try and get it
finished, before I get distracted again! ;)

Yes you should make a backpack or jetpack. Also some weapons would be a nice
touch. Somehow these type of mecha feel unfinished without them. Soren is making
some of the best around right now. Check his MOC pages. David Rabadan has a
“weapons” folder in his Brickshelf that are second to none. They might be a bit
small for your scale, but could be a good source on inspiration.
