 | | New Moc: Kestrel —Jon Walden
|
| | | Hello all, I have been very busy as of late. What with buying a house, moving in, and preparing for the arrival of our first child (she is due May 6, btw), I haven’t had much time for building. The pimp my Mech contest got me all up in arms to use (...) (19 years ago, 21-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space)

| | | | | (...) Is that really orange?! It looks very dark in your pics, although I like the colour scheme nonetheless. Actually I like the whole thing. The torso and cockpit are done very nicely, and it does look light and agile enough as befits its (...) (19 years ago, 21-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

If you have looked at some of my other mecha, usually they have (...) (19 years ago, 21-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| | | | | Wow. Its good to see more orange mechs these days. The look of the mech and and the name definitely suit the skirmisher role. One sight mod I'd like to see on the feet though is replacing the 1x2 black plate and adding a modified orange slope like (...) (19 years ago, 23-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks, Fradel! I will probably revisit this design for other flaws, but will definitely take both your suggestions and Matthew's under advisement when I do. Hmmm....have to double check whether or not I have anymore of the 2X2 slopes in that (...) (19 years ago, 23-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | | Very nice work, Jon. I'm also liking the orange color scheme you've chosen there. Are the dark orange parts from 4884 Wild Hunters? I'm definitely going to have to check out that color. Hope you can keep on building in between diaper changing! ;) (...) (19 years ago, 24-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | (...) I like that bright orange/burnt orange color combination, I don't think I've seen that before. That cockpit design is also cool, a little more impact than just a solid wedge piece, although I wish the color matched. I'd suggest trying to get (...)
