(...) I had already noticed this on Brickshelf. It sure is sweet, although I can't make up my mind whether I like the printed nose piece or not. Fantastic name aswell.

That's a very good EVA look for a pirate mech. You've mentioned on CSF I believe, that you went for a realistic approach to the "Arr, send them to Davey Jones's locker" look. I think fusion cutters and buzzsaws/chainsaws would work well for hull (...) (18 years ago, 23-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, 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 (...) (18 years ago, 23-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Well being a humble castle builder I can't offer any advice but... green is my faviourite colour and the compactness of this MOC give it a nice 'meanness' without a human resembelance.
