(...) Very slick. Nice legs. (I mean the mecha, not you! :-) Actually, the whole model is great. The gantry is a nice touch. :-, BTW -- great background, too. The texture really adds to the atmosphere of the pictures. Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

i like the mechs... esp. the joints on the HMM10. I was wondering how you did the joints, because i tried plently times to make a decent mech and 2 things always happen: 1. the legs collaspe under the wieght of the body 2. the arms 'sags' due to the (...)
