Well, I do like to have playability in my models, but a 6 ft Atlas would
look REALLY sweet. Working for lego would be really fun, too. I have
thought some about it, as I like computers and lego, just what they say they
need. Time will tell.

Well, actually a friend pointed out it isn't true camo, as it is symetrical.
I am somewhat of a perfectionist, and EVERY model of mine is symmetrical,
except different weaps, etc. My Shadowcat model uses less green/brown/tan,
but it is not the same on both sides. Some is, some isn't. I really like
some mechs camo, but it would look fairly weird on, say, most of Mladen's
work. I don't remember seeing anything from you in camo yet. I know it
would be hard, as green and brown are limited in quanity, but you could do a
smaller mech instead of one of your awesome 'Fortress on Legs' models. Try
it...

Thanks, I'll try. I work for my dad's construction company now, so I can
actually finance buying more lego. I just wish I could get in a LUG. But
Boise, Idaho is not the right place. : (
