| | | Hi all, After being totally inspired by GlaGla's awesome Ingram from Patlabor, I sat down yesterday and most of last night building, set out to create a model with minifig arms for fingers.

| | | | | Hey this looks swell Chris! reminds me alot of a VOTOMS mecha, nice, the missile pack on the arm is really well designed, as is the hand gun. I really like the feet too! Very nice shape, and the ankle covers are sweet too. It seems a little studdy, (...) (23 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

That's something I'm still having problems with - allowing for ankle movement while keeping them covered. (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | ahhh haa! Very cool. hey, built in a day and half a night! Your a trooper! The Mech has some nice features, while I was checking it out I noticed one of the things I like best is how you have the single slope in Between the shoulder armour. It (...)

| | | | Thanks for the compliments Eric. The slope in the shoulder - that was the first design I tried, and I liked it a lot, so I kept it.
