I've never seen Gasaraki. I've only seen a few pictures of the mecha used in
that show. However, my mecha isn't based on the Gasaraki designs.

Thank you Jeff! I know that the exposed pilots are at risk of being killed,
but just imagine how much money it saves the military to build small mecha that
are piloted externally! ;-)
Seriously though, I just don't have a gigantic collection like some of you
AFOLs out there. I'm only 15, so I have to think of making my designs both cool
and economically feasible. ;-)
Another thing is, I really get sick of seeing huge rectangular MOCs here on
LUGNET. Who says a transport has to completely cover the cargo it is carrying?
I think that an exposed, "skeleton-like" design is much more interesting than
say a 150 stud long aerospace wehicle which is mostly comprised of ordinary
bricks. Of course, this is only my opinion.
Plus, if I have to sacrifice realism I will. Look at my "Valour" AG, the thing
doesn't even have an airlock, much less any hospitable living areas for the
crew! I'm more interested in making a cool looking vehicle than something that
looks bad, yet is "realistic". Like I've told someone before, if I want to make
realistic vehicles and machines, I'd become an engineer, if I want to make
aesthetically pleasing spacecraft and mecha, I'll build them out of LEGO!
Sorry if this got too off-topic...
