Nice additions Travis! I think I like this mecha even more than the first time
I saw it on your website and slowly went through the .DAT file. I think your
mecha has one of the coolest torso's I've ever seen; I just love the hatch and
the lights and weapons on it.

Regarding the colour sceme: "Yes I'm not alone!"; I too do this when building
some of my "larger" models (Mirage), but recently, I just dump the same
coloured pieces on the floor and build from them, which is slightly more of a
challenge and tons of fun! ;-)

Great model modifications Travis, can't wait for the .DAT file!

Mladen Pejic, over and out!

making changes to it, which I suppose is a the drawback and

myself to stop changing it, I'll clean up the dat files and generate
some CAD images.  It's tentivaly called the Trooper, but I have to come
up with a better name than that one.

The images which have a "2" in the name have a newer set of legs.

Sorry about the color scheme.  When testing ideas, I work with what
I've got.

Thanks. It's gone through some additional modifications, but I'm not sure these are permanent. Regardless, I'm pleased with the overall look of the model. However, I think my model pales in view of the awesome designs that have been showing up. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
