Very unorthodox design Brian, reminds me of this mecha: (URL) really like this mecha, especially the arms and head. The torso is also nicely done, and the dark-grey & red colour scheme never gets old... ;-) (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) It depends, what specs are you looking for? A good 1.3-1.6 megapixel camera is down to *below* $200 in a lot of places. Mine is only 0.8, but it works well if I have a tripod to hold it steady...(The 1.3 mega- pixel machine, btw, was a (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Yet another massive work of art. Initially reminded me of this: (URL) it got me thinking about the Emerald Weapon from FF7. (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New Mobile Armor
 
Beautiful as always Brian! I like the overall form factor of this Mobile Armor very much. The head and arms are especially elegant. I like all the shapes that are going on everywhere. And I'll just echo the comments of others. Red + Dark Grey = Nice (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
