(...) Tim, Nice scale. Does it seat a whole fig or just the head? Jude (18 years ago, 29-May-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) It seats a whole figure. I've actually got him standing in the pictures but he sits in there quite happily. Tim (18 years ago, 29-May-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) -little snip- (...) I dig the schematic view. That just rocks. Seems like rendered models are in some sort of revival. But honestly my favorite is how the driver looks like he's peeking out of the cockpit - "Is it safe yet?" It looks like the (...) (18 years ago, 30-May-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Spider Mech type A - Anti-aircraft model
 
(...) Thanks. I'll probably do more of the schematics. They're quite fun and really easy. You can expect more renders from me given the smallness and trainness of my collection.

(...) Hehe. Cool. Thanks for building this and especially for all the advice. I'll fix the problems, add steps and make some instructions.

(...) No worries...I've made a couple of changes (1x3 curved bricks in dark red, 1x1 slopes in red, 1x2 tiles on feet in red) due to part limitations in my small spares collection, and am about to remove the yellow from the turrret as it doesn't fit (...)

--SNIP-- (...) I think I caught two of the missing parts in my updated instructions but not the tear... I have a bad habit of pretending that 1x2 technic bricks already have the half-pins ;) I believe that the gun is unbuildable as is since the two (...)
