I could have finished this mecha in a week, but school started.

A pain isn't it, my school had a major power failure the first day though! so that gave me a bit
of extra time.

All my models
were built in relatively small time frame. Models that looked like they
were gonna take a long time to build, such as the failed Carrier project, were
scrapped. I guess this tells you something about my building ethic. ;-)

If somethin's lookin' like it's gonna' fail, I try and hold on to it and keep building for as long
as I can, but when it hit's the moment of, "this sucks," then it's a gonna'. I realized this the
other day with my mecha carrier I had mentioned, it started out lookin' great, used magnet's and
everything to hold in the mecha, but it ended up looking like a exact clone of Mark's so I wrecked
it.

This
mecha, like most of my bipedal mecha, can barely stand up. It fell over a
couple of times.

Really? Azriel and the toroise looked very stable, as do most of your mecha,
Dang, I need to get mlcad and build your models IRL!

Well, yes and no. They are stable because all the stoppers make their joints
unable to move. However, the stopper themselve can fail, and you know what
happens then. ;-)

Uh-huh, funny though, none of my mecha have stoppers, well they do, but once the torso has fallen
down beyond the waist, that's when they disitegrate. :~D

But I usually find some sort of balance and it stands up,

Another difficulty was my small collection of dark grey
pieces which I had to work with. :-(

You obviously made good use of it though,

Yeah, but I did have to make major revisions to each part of the mecha.
Consider the mecha you are looking at now as "Dilur" Mk. II. ;-)
