Jim, your Kung-fu is good! When you say you have studied the builders around here your right! I see many familar design techniques, none the less you've done a great job combining them together.

(not really). Seriously though, I'm glad you like my models, (...) (23 years ago, 6-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Someone else said it, and I'll echo it. This is going to be a very good year for mecha. I like the big grey guy. Big, beefy looking, hung 8'0 Great job. All I can say is keep building, and see what works for you. Mark Neumann (URL) of the Snow (...) (23 years ago, 6-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
