I decided to try building some realistic BattleTech models, hoping to bring my

The result is the Behemoth/Stone Rhino.  This ultra-large Assault-class
BattleMech is featured on the cover of the 3055TRO (ISBN#1-55560-164-2).

The model is in LDraw format only.  I estimate that the brick cost to buy
enough kits to build the Behemoth would be over $1,000 at least.

The LDraw DAT file had 34 sub-models, and was 47k when inlined.  The POV
images on my site took 15 minutes to render, despite their tiny size and lack
of many transparencies.

Feel free to take a look.  It's available for download, along with all sub-
parts.  The URL is

That's one beefy mech! Nice work!
