Geordan,
nice mecha. there are quite a few things i like about it, but let me just
mention the nicest. first off, i think the two weapons are quite nicely
done. very good. the hands are cool too. the whole jetpack thing works well
w/ the model, imho. now...the odd part. i like the, though it's odd, the
whole 4x4 cylinder belly thing you did. strange, but it seems to work w/ the
mecha. the head is nice. now...from the hips to the knees, fairly normal.
however, from the knees to the toes, it looks very unique. i like the whole
skinny calf and big long feet thing. an all around good model. good job.
