First off, I built a new mecha. Basically, I just wanted to add as much
weaponry on it as I could. The bazooka is my personal favourite. ;-)

It also comes with a zero-g pack, radome, and smoke discharger system.
Naturally, I was inspired heavily by real world military weapons and anime
(mostly Gundam and VOTOMS).

"Brute" Advanced Tactical Mecha: http://www3.sympatico.ca/mladenpejic/Brute.htm

As well, I finished the LDraw files for both the Landing Barge and APC-02.

APC-02 (Mass Production): http://www3.sympatico.ca/mladenpejic/APC02.htm

Enjoy!

Very nice!  the first thing that struck me on this mecha was that it's legs
were twisted out a bit, such that the feet aren't pointing in the same
direction.  Your other more recent mecha also have this feature, but for
some reason, it's very noticable on this mecha.  It gives it a more natural
pose.

Thanks Chris! Good observation, you are right about this mecha looking more
natural. My previous mecha ('cept Joker) have had really crappy stances, I
wanna change that.

On a similar note, articulation is one of those obstacles I have yet to
overcome. However, I'm drawing great inspiration from you, and one day, you'll
see mr. Snead, you'll see... !!! ;-)


Seems like brute is about the same size as you Ranger mecha.  What's that,
about 12 inches or so?

Good estimate, really close. It's a bit bigger than the Ranger; overall, it's
11 1/2 inches including head antenna (the "Ranger" was around 10 inches).

BTW, you should forward a pic of this MOC to Brad Justus, and be like, "See?
Mecha don't have prominent guns!  I bet you couldn't find even one on this
model "  ;-)

LOL!

Well, *maybe* I overdid the weaponry... :-D


Keep up the good work!

I will...

And you, stop posting these lame teasers; give us MORE.

Argh! I'm dying of anticipation. ;-D
