  Beetle Bay
 
Well, as (URL) 'promised'>, I managed to get the Beetle Bay finished for the Brislug meeting on Sunday, and Tim managed to soldier on through a hangover of fairly epic proportions to bring along his Christmas Beetle. I kinda overestimated the size (...) (18 years ago, 28-Nov-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

Now that is cool! I like the sleek, sparse, almost medical looking setting and equipment and the bettle compliments the bay perfectly. Great work! (...)

Hi Allister, first of all congrats on your MOC. It's really great design (...) Well up to now I thought Mecha are sience fiction. But considering this statement, it seems I was wrong. Must be fantasy. Thanks for sharing (URL) Marco> (18 years ago, 29-Nov-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Beetle Bay
 
(...) Very nice! The only thing I'd change is the color of the arms that come down from the overhead servicing hub. I'd make them white, if you have the pieces in white. I make this suggestion only because I love the contrast of the black mech (...) (18 years ago, 29-Nov-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
