Hi all, I just finished a new mecha. You can see it here: (URL) came from: Armored Core 2 Gundam Wing Xenosaga The model also hosts a new hand design (utilizes those small levers): (URL) I coverted all of my old inlined .DAT files into .MPD / .LDR (...)

(...) <Snip> Wow, I really like this one. I'll congradulate it on it's legs, and the new hands! I also like the shape and direction of the torso ,but what happens if it takes a major hit there? :O) Rob robo2705@hotmail.com (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Nice job Mladen. The weapons are (of course) awesome. I see you have been making use of your 4 barrel cannon. I like the lower leg, looks especially neat for some reason. But I dont really like the hips, it seems kinda blocky there. All in all, I (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

DUDE! This is a awesome model! I really like this. First off, the hands, "mmm-mmm good." :-) They really make the mecha come alive (not that it wasn't already), I like them alot, I wanna copy it, but...agh..must resist... :^) The lower leg is (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
