I’ll leave the Mecha critique for those who are more qualified (I,
personally, am into trains), but I will offer this bit of advice to you.
Don’t upload .bmp files. Personally, I won’t download them, as I know a lot
of people won’t, either. Stick with .jpg or .png, and mind your file sizes.
If I were you, I’d take them down and reload.

I do like the mech, and if it’s your first major MLCAD design, I’m really
impressed, since I know mechs can be a pain to model. (Even if it’s not your
first major model, I’m still impressed by it. I like the design.)
But John’s right about the BMPs. Since you appear to be using LDView for the
pictures, just switch to PNG files there in the future. (Select PNG: Portable
Network Graphics in the Save as type field in the Save Snapshot dialog.)
JPEGs will be smaller, but with LDView images they often don’t look too good
(which is why LDView doesn’t offer JPEG as a file format).
Another LDView hint: check the Conditional lines check box in the Edge Lines
group box of the Geometry tab in Preferences.
