Very nice Mladen! Good close up shots. I'd like to see it from the front too. Pat J (...) (24 years ago, 6-May-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Thanks ya'll! Yeah, the mecha's detail is kinda hard to see, but I guess that's a sign of complex building methods. ;-) I'm sorry Pat, I don't wanna do any more pics, too tired. ;-) I do however highly recommend downloading L3Lab and downloading my (...)

Thanks Ben, I hope everyone realizes the auto-cannon is the long tube on the right arm. I first the built the foot for this mecha, and since I didn't wanna copy you, Ben, I put the toes backward, and made the into heels. The I built the rest of the (...)

Thanks Dan, very good observation too... But aren't the engines/fuel tanks on the Kodiak from _Heavy Gear_ exposed too? Oh well, you got me! *And there hydrogen too, so imagine how well they would blow up, hehehe! (...) (24 years ago, 7-May-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

That's why it has such a variety of weapons, lasers and SRM3 for troops/light vehicles, auto-cannon for (...) (24 years ago, 7-May-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Mecha -- "Maniac" Special-Tactics Mecha
