| Thanks to being burned out with my sculptures after finishing Geoffrey, I decided I needed a change of pace. With all these origami mecha bouncing around, I decided I'd give it a try. I needed a different color though, as most of the other normal (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.announce)

The toughest thing about building this mech was the fact that the only orange plates I had to work with were 2x2 (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) This is certainly a nice design, a uniqoe design, and certainly a good design for a small mecha but the orange, especially if you added some white pieces, screams 'Go Vols." I live in Tennessee, need I say more, Adrian? I believe that the (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) I think the point was the availability of orange pieces. Orange isn't as widely available as green for instance. It makes building a challenge when a rare color is featured prominently. The challenge seems to be the point and Adrian has done a (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
