Hello!
A new mecha left my dockyard:
It is the Madcat or Timberwolf from Battletech or Mechwarrior.
My Madcat operates on an iceplanet. So I create a camouflage-snow-Version of it.
In colors like the military use it, in snow. In gemany we woud say Schneetarn,
I do not know if it is in english called Sky Camo? Sometimes pictures tell
more than words, I wanted to create a Mecha in this Design:

Here is the result:
Here you can see all Pics of this Mecha:

Facts:
Madcat is a 75 Tons Clan OmniMech.
I create Madcat in a camouflage-snow-design -SchneeTarn. To display the
camouflage-snow-design (Schneetarn) design, I used Lego-Stickers from the 7467
set. This wars my last step, to ad the Stickers. First I used many more of those
stickers. For example I completly paste up (laminate) the Missel-launcher-boxes
with those stickers. But that was to much. It dosent looks langer like a lego
creation. So I began to use the stickers spare and dosed/regulated. For the
Minifig Torsos I used the same 7467 Stickers.

(And it is not easy to remove this stickers from Lego bricks! Be careful if you
use it.)
On Page 2 in my Madcat(Brickshelf)Gallery you can see the Original Pictures of
the Madcat. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=242484&n=47
I tryed to hold me strong on these pictures, when I createt and build my Madcat
Version.

Look on this pictures, they are very interesting. Especially the technical
diagrams show many technical details of the original Madcat.

In practice the legs are not so solid/stable as I think before.
But it works.
Complete missiles are in the missile-luncher-boxes.
This is my first armed Mecha.
Later a civil-version without weaponry will follow.
The Madcat was the first Mecha that I have seen in my childhood, so far I can
renember. I seen it on a Computermagazin many years agao. And now it was time to
make a Lego Version of one of my alltime favorite Mechas: The Madcat.
Questions and comments are welcome!
I hope you enjoy it!
Regards Dan
