Well an awesome model deserves an awesome reponse, IMHO! ;-)

When I said nice colour sceme, I meant it was excellent how you followed the
real Gundam colour sceme. Plus, I'm amazed when anyone makes something out of
so much white, since I could barely build a large mecha foot with the
non-existent white I have in my collection.

I seem to have lots of white bricks, owing mostly to Classic Space of the
80's and a fre of the 1200 pc tubs. I am really lacking in white plates. I
very nearly exhausted my supply with Colossus.


As for Karim's ammo "belt" and Colin's hands, I think you did an awesome job
of
"expanding" and utilizing their idea's, very nice.

Thanks. :^)


BTW I've tried so many times to make mecha with opening missile bays and etc.
but have never once been successful. A' dang, back to the drawing boards!

Well you kinda have to build big if you want internal bays. Still, Pat J's
Spider mecha has some good examples of opening missile racks.

Again, amazing mecha! Makes me wish I had Throwbot joints, and a better sense
of Gundam mecha styles (I lean more towards Heavy Gear and Patlabor)! ;-)

Nothin' wrong with that. Those are great styles, too. I think I lean toward
Gundam because I'm not as good at making Heavy Gear and Patlabor-style
stuff. :^D  Maybe we should each try the other and see what we come up with.

I like Heavy Gear, because it has very utilitarian designs, like real military vehicles and mecha will look like in the "near future". Of course, the same can be said for Gundam, but they are more like what military vehicles and mecha will look like (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
