Boy, one picture doesn't satisfy you guys, so I guess I'll upload em all. :-)

This is the Zion. Equipped with full arsenal of laser sword, KA-101 BLAM
rifle, shoulder cannon, and wrist cannons, the Zion is the first mech I've
built this large that I've been satisfied. It has 26 points of articulation
and is fairly poseable.
Thanks go out to Dave Thomas, Jr. for the overall color scheme and design,
drawn a lot from his stuff. Mladen Pejic's curved clip idea is used in the
rifle. Mark Sandlin, Brian Cooper, and Bryce McGlone all have little bits
and pieces that I'm sure are in there somewhere as well. :-)
Please, let's hear what you have to say.
-Chris

| Great work Chris! That is one awesome mech. The legs are so detailed, very well crafted, the feet have a very neat design to them too. The rifle is awesome, twin barreled, it looks like it would pack a punch. The shoulder pads are cool too, You hid (...) (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) It has nice proportions and a pleasant color scheme, very much like a toy gundam. The contrast of the candy-coated aspects with the more serious details make it an interesting custom design. I like it. "K" (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
