Thanks Peter!

I draw my inspiration from a variety of sources:
Legs & Torso - Gundam
Rail-Gun, Belt & Ammo Drum - Metal Gear Solid
Missile Covers - Armoured Core 2

I occassionally watch anime, and read gaming magazines. You can glean
inspiration from these sources, as many people evidently do. ;-)

Most Anime-inspired mecha follow a basic design pattern. Example: the head is
usually quite small, the legs are long, the torso is small (thin near bottom),
shoulders are large, etc.

Study Gundam designs, and you'll get the grasp of this particular style.

there are great ideas in this mech. Specifically, the concealed shoulder
mounts are nice (concealed weapons are always cool) and rail guns are also
always cool, but with the added ammunition belt, it is much better. Of
course the over all design is great, everything seem pretty articulate. I
don't where you get your inspiration for this, but I'd keep it a secret,
whatever it is. Unfortunately I don't seem to have the pieces to build such
a model, mainly because I tend to get emotionally attatched to my mecha, and
never actually destroy them to build new ones. However, this does give me
the chance to upgrade them an make them way cooler, so it's a half-half
thing. Anyway I'm also short on bricks. THe only thing I can say is that
I'll soon have pics of the completed Swinger 3!!!!! Unfortunately I upgraded
his blasters shortly aftewards so it actually the current version, but yay!
and..... RANDOM ON!

Y'know, strangely enough, I actually own all those games and I'm a great fan of the gundam series, hmm..... apparently my brain is drying up, damn brain, why'd it stop sponging? Anyway I may try to pursue something like that. What kind of joint (...) (23 years ago, 10-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
