Very nice Chris! I really like the sword! You've done a great job with the
face using basic pieces. The skirt is particularly well done. The hinge on
the front rocks. Also those hands are great. One thing that strikes me over
and over on your models is the wonderful implied shapes and forms that you make.
On a different note: you are coming down in Nov! Right?
Later,
Bryce

Hey, everyone!

I've been pretty busy with school, so I haven't been doing much "Meching"; but
I have been working on a little something that is a mix between Eros and
Regulus:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=7464

It's about 90% done.  I posted now, though, because I probably won't get to the
rest of it for a little while; so you'll have to stay tuned...among other
things, there will be sort of a bazooka-missile launching type of weapon.

This mecha came about while I was searching for a better way to do hands for
Regulus and Chiron.  I asked Mladen for any ideas he had; he was kind enough to
provide several designs.  I didn't have parts to make the hands of choice for a
tan and brown mecha; so I built a new one in red.  Thanks, Mladen!

This mecha also represents the last mecha of this type that I will build; I
have been building mecha that are sort of action figures.  Now, I want to build
larger, more involved mecha using worm gears and click gears (like on Cepheus).

Anyway, let me know what you think!

See you all later!

Chris

(...) make. (...) The sword is a throwing type of sword like the one in "Ninja Scroll". I've been really wanting to do such a thing since "Bionicle".
