Intimidating is definately the best description! I really dig the retro look to it....almost bauhaus mecha. Talk about an amazing render to be dropped in a diorama of some sort. Veddy cool. Great to see some stuff from you again Joel - it's been (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)

I am in awe at this mecha. It's body style seems like an almost highly advanced spider-ball mech from the OLD Johnny Quest animated show. If I remember correctly I think Zin made it. Your style is very catchy. The studless hard lines in the body and (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)
