Hey, everyone!

Here is my new Andromeda, my new mecha:

Wow!  I am working on Super Battle Droid MS as well and is it is two shoulders
and a head short of being finished!  I completely agree with you, the Super
Battle Droid set is nice, but with those hinges it could have been a lot
better!  You have done an excellent work on improving the range of motion with
these joints, not to mention that you have found a way to stiffen them.

Thanks!  I can't wait to see what you do with these joints.  You're mecha are
all so different...one never knows what to expect from Neo-Oz next!  ;-)

I can't stress enough how nice is the torso area of the Andromeda.  The two
lowest armor plates, the ones at a 20 degree angle from the horizontal are
simply to die for!

The central region just sort of happened by accident.  I'm glad it did, too!  I
feel like it really makes the mecha.  The 20 degree angle plates were partially
inspired by an L-Gaim model I saw in a Hobby magazine, and partially by
Mladen's challenge to build a mecha without skirt armour.

This whole MS looks just great!  i can't wait to see it with all of its new
weapons and gadgets.  Now if you would excuse me, I have to go and see if I
can make any of my mechas kick in the air because I completly forgot about
those type of poses.

Thanks again!  I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Chris

That's it for now!
Later, Chris

Once again, excellent work Chris!
