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!

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. (...) (26 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
