Hmm... okeydokey... well first to answer Mladen's question "random on" is a
phrase I use a lot on my base website Pete's Page of Random, which basically
refers to keep being random and act random. So that's that....
Next I realize that the the mech is a bit off balance, and I might attempt
to shorten the arms because not so much the mech can't handle it (the pics
cleared that up) but it's very hard to stand him like that. The main purpose
of this dude was my first attempt at decent legs, I was putting too much
attention into the arms, but I probably should. And the cockpit, or the
torso, (think I should put a head on the top?) was actually meant to be
sealed, and to be very sturdy, the only part that snaps a part is the upper
glass piece.
Finally, I get the color scheme, I've figured what I might try to do is to
swap piece between different mechs to give each one their own specific color
scheme. I may have to take some mechs apart and put 'em together again and
so on, but the end result should be pretty good. And yes, I have not
destroyed a single one of my mechs so far, although I have changed a few by
upgrading and stuff, for the most part the main bodies are all still the
same. Just as a little side info, I'm working on a very small mecha, that'll
be my first attempt at the micro-fig size...... I've colored it with black
and grey, and ocasional highlights of yellow, should look good, although I'm
still perfecting it, becaue I'm unhappy with the current design... oh
well... back to work....
