Definitely an improvement over the first design.
As an MOC, I think this is a very good mecha. I like theat you are using t-bot
gearboxes for some of the joints; this looks more substantial than a "puppet"
as K would say.
As an EVA, I think it is an ambitious attempt, but it falls a bit short of what
I would visualize. Please don't get me wrong - I think an EVA is probably the
hardest mecha to build out of lego, with it's muscle tone and thin design. You
have come about as close to succeeding as anyone else I've seen, with the
exception of Sun Yun. Even here, I think part of the success of his design is
the fact that the mecha is black. The lack of muscle tone doesn't show as
much; it's more like looking at the shadow of an EVA, which seems more
convincing.
Still, an excellent model overall, with a lot of innovative use of parts. I
like especially how your building style has changed over time. I've seen four
of your mecha, and each one looks completely different!
Say, considering you are "Neo OZ", and you have all of those red parts, may I
suggest that you construct a Mercurius? The Mercurius and the Vayeate have to
be my two favorite Oz mobile suits. I especially like how they were designed
to work as a team.
Just a thought...
Keep up the great work!
