It still doesn't look much like an Evangelion unit,

Well, they're hard to do, but this one looks good anyway.  Kinda like a Red
barney on Steroids.... ;)  No insult, really, just one of the sideshots
makes the head look downright Barney-ish.  But I still love your mod.

He he he!  Barney, the new Angel!  All human kind and Evas tremble in fear just
from the sound of his name!

but at least this model is
extremely stable (unlike ALL of my other mechas).

Stable is good.  How'd you get the hips to be so flexible and yet stable?
Kind of hard to see in the pics.  Ball joints tend to give me high flex,
with no stability.

The ball joints and their connectors are in Lego Technic dimensions (sort of)
while the arms and the legs are in Lego System, therefore, the two don't match
exactly and when there is an overlap rather than a gap you get extra friction
(LOTS of extra friction).  It's not obvious in the arms, but you can see how
the joints at the hips bend from the extra force exerted on them.

I hope you like it!

Not as much as your Deathscythe, my second fave Gundam.  BTW, how didja get
all the parts for him?  Saved up for a few years and splurged, or got what
you needed when ya needed it?

A bit of both.  I must have wasted a good $200+ just to get extra pieces for
it.  I hope to finish the darn thing one of these days, summer vacation is
having a very negative effect on me (that and the new game Mechwarrior Dark
Age).
