(...) No criticism or suggestions; I love it. Great colour scheme, I'm always a fan of black+white+other colour, and your green / trans-green detailing works really well. It's lovely and compact yet really beefy looking; those cannons are fabulous. (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hi Dennis, First off I'd like to congratulate you on a great little mech! Awesome colours, nice proportions, and great detailing. I love the guns, big and mean looking!
