Thanks for the replies Mladen!

Wow, that's quite a model. Here are my thoughts:

The legs are simply great. I like the feet the most. The knees are cool too.
Well done.

Thanks, they are very simple shapes, but I think they work, well somewhat
anyway ;)

The lower, round, protruding part of the torso is very original. You really
have a talent for making any type of torso design work. That jump jets are good
as well.

heh thanks

The weapons, hands, and head are nicely done too.

Thanks, props to you for the hand design and also the gun clip on the gun.

Now, as for the shoulders and the two torso "humps", I think they need to be
pushed down. Right now, they are too far up, and make the mecha seem weird,
IMHO. Maybe making the shoulders just a stud wider would make the mecha better
too?

okay! I'll change it for when I take the new pics. thanks for the tips. :)

I really think that if you redid those parts, this mecha would be stellar,
instead of just cool. j/k :-D

hehe

That's really my only complaint. I really like your use of colour on this
mecha.

Thanks,

You also seem to have mastered the studless look too. ;-)

Mastered no, just copied ;)

thanks again Mladen,

One word: FINALLY!

geez, I have been having so much trouble getting a mecha together since
January, but FINALLY I got something finished. :-)

After the hokum, I got about 3/4 of the way done on a winter combat
mecha...that died...then I tried a hardsuit...finished it, but it wasn't
worth posting...then I tried building a large scale mecha...that was so dead
by the time I was up to the waist, it wasn't worht trying to fix what was there.

but FINALLY. :-D

sorry for the cruddy/small pics, I'd like to go back and take some new ones
within this week hopefully.

anyways, it's called the Tosai, it has two main weapons, a large beam rifle,
and a small anti-infantry type gun. four smoke dischargers mounted in the
arms. It can hover for short amounts of time via the jets on the back.
There's my spiel.

Anyways, Credits to my buddy Mladen, specifically, on the hands, I combined
the dated minifig feet idea with his newest hand desgin, credits there. The
almost no studs showing construction is credit to him and his wolf as well.
Also, I used Chris Snead's stiffened hinge design in the hips.

I think that's it!

lemme know what you think! :-D

FINALLY! :^P
