Hi all,

I just finished a new mecha. You can see it here:

When I first saw the thumbnails my first comment was: Oh my god.  when I
opened the first picture I thought: this isn't LEGO.  O.K. this thing is
amazing.  I haven't been commenting too much on lugnet lately (big project
at work) but I had to post a little comment about this.

Heh... Thanks for the kind remarks John! ;-)


What color is the torso?  black? it looks lik it is a darker gray color. must
be your lighting.

Yes, the torso is black. On my monitor it looks black in *most* of the
pictures. Some are a bit "quirky" so I understand the confusion. ;-)

I of course love the weapons.  my favorite part is the upper torso/shoulder
area.

Thanks, I knew you would!

the lower torso seems too skinny to me but you only notice that on the
staright from the front shots.

Yeah, I sorta grappled with this problem for a while. Trust me, if I made it
any wider it would have looked even worse (well IMHO anyway). The upper torso
too was widened later on in the construction to provide more room for the
opening panels and machine guns. I chose to do a thin torso in the first place
because it looked more anime-ish. ;-)

The hands are ingenious (probablly spelt wrong)

LOL! Thanks. You got the word's spelling right too.


Well gotta get back to work

Good luck dude!

Inspiration came from:
Armored Core 2
Gundam Wing
Xenosaga

The model also hosts a new hand design (utilizes those small levers):

Also, I coverted all of my old inlined .DAT files into .MPD / .LDR files.

I finished the .MPD's for these recent models of mine as well:

Enjoy!
