  My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
Hi all, I just recently (OK, so like 2 months ago) started building some spacecraft and mecha, and I wanted to see what everybody thinks, so here's some links for you... My mecha: (URL) spacecraft: (URL) notice the styles of many different people, a (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space) !!

  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
Excellent work Chris! Your mechs are great. I love your Angel, Payload, Grunt, and the turtle (excellent use of the space chairs). Try a few large scale mechs also. Keep on building. Neo-OZ (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) mmmmmmm, sweeeeeeet. I'll be perusing these for quite a while. BTW, please tell Shiri "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" for me. :^) ~1st Lieutenant, Fleebnork Division Muffin Head (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Very cool, Chris! You've got a real knack for those tiny SD looking mecha guys. I think my favorites have to be the Gorilla, Thwomp, and Angel models. Very nice first outing into the Mecha world. ~Nathan (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
Very cool ships- and they definitely tie in well with "Fleebnork" Sandlin's racers. The mecha are nice too. It's amazing what can be done with even a small number of parts put together right. -- Tony Hafner www.hafhead.com (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

Chris, Awesome mechs!!! I am turning into a bitter little no microfig talented grump!!! That's it I'm forming the Super Duper Macro Biggy Fig Scale Group. We will make mechas so big that we'll dress up like Timmys and climb into them ourselves! (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) And why not? Let's form the Super Duper Macro Biggy Fig Scale Group!

Your ships are excelent!! I think I like the red one the most.

  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Wow, you've been busy - all of these models in a couple of months. And not bad for your first attempts at spacey models. I really like your hammerhead spacecraft - great lines. And the mecha are all very cute (and I mean that in the best (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Thanks! I've tried larger scale mechs before, but the joints never work out, or something like that, so right now the small ones work for me. :-) But I'd like to have a go at a Technic skeleton surrounded by plates with gear driven joints (...)

  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Thanks Nathan. Actually, I shouldn't say these are my first tries. These are just the first ones I thought worthy of online publication. All the other ones hit the scrap heap long ago. :-) -Chris (24 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Thanks. Yeah, these are built, sitting there looking pretty, and along comes a MuffinHead, introduces his new line of "Racers", and now I'm the one fitting into his groove...<screams in frustration> :-) -Chris (24 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Re: My first foray(s) into "The New Frontier"
 
(...) Yeah the angel is my other favorite. Still I'm going to make one (or three) of your gorillas and use him (them) as a drone(s)for my gorilla mech :-D Bryce (24 years ago, 19-Apr-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
