I have a quick survey:
While building a mech, what is the hardest part for you to make? I always
have tons of trouble making the head look decent and properly proportioned

to hear what others think.

| (...) on the few first attempts at building anything but minimechs, I find that the torso is hardest for me.

If you give a mecha a disproportionately small head, it just (...) (23 years ago, 27-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| Well, let's see, Hmmm, it depends.... I ussually always start with the head. I like building the head of a new Mech, because at that point I know what "personallity" the Mech will have, then I start on the Hands. Once the Head and the hands are (...)

| Hey Greg The hardest part of building a mech is visualizing in your head what is it that you want to build? Once you have that done, everything else is a matter of time to build things just right. The second hardest part is getting the mechs (...) (23 years ago, 28-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| Well, seeing as to how i built ONE mech in my LEGO career, i'm not sure how valid my opinion of "the hardest part to build" is, but the most trouble i've had with my ONE mech would be the joints. I guess i'm spoiled by super poseable spiderman by (...) (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
