wow.  This is real cool.  I love the hip skirt and the feet and legs. The
head looks like it has quite a few degrees' of freedom. is it on an old
school b&s joint or something? I also think the arms look pretty cool. The
Shoulder armor is (while smaller) vaguely reminicent of the AMX-004 Qubeley
from Gundam Double Zeta
(http://www.gundamproject.com/mecha/gundamzz_qubeleymp.html).  It definitlly
has a Jion/Axis/Neo-Jion feel to it. I love the rounded feel that tho whole
model has.  I built a similar sized model and it appears a bit boxy.  I have
a few criticisms: the first is the pose (minor I know).  It seems to be
leaning back.  It made it a bit difficult to tell what was the front and
what was the back (also since the first pic was of the back) I think that
the torso looks really cool but seems to stick out too far in the front.
Tho it isn't as obvious in the last pic of the 3 mecha perhaps a slightly
leaning forward pose would make the torso seem to stick out less.  It's too
bad the you took it apart this is a really cool design, I wouold love to see
it IRL.

Hello all,

This one's been done for a while (in fact it's already been destroyed in
favour of something newer and perhaps weirder), so sorry if the photos
are poor, not much I can do now....

anyway, find it here:

John, Thanks for the comments and the critique. I see what you mean about the pose. I didn't even think about the order of the photos, since (when I check out others' pages) I usually just pick the ones I like most... The similarity of the shoulder (...)
