Ooo... I like what I see! ;-)
Very cool Geordan. I really like the shoulders, I dunno why. Guess 'cause it
was kind of bold of you to make them so enormous and all red-coloured! The
torso is well done, as are the legs. The right, forearm-mounted (shell firing?)
gun seems to be your trademark; I always enjoy seeing it.
The only things I think of that could be improved are the forearms. The crouch
mounted missile launcher is cool, but kinda looks weird. Trust me, [1] adding
stuff to the crouch doesn't always come out perfect. These are just minor
complaints however.
Mladen Pejic, over and out!
