Ok, So I didn't see any "PLMKWYT" in your post, but I'll do it anyway.

If at first you don't succeed...  maybe you should start all over.  In my
humble opinion, this thing is ugly.  I really don't like it at all.  The
color scheme doesn't work for me, the upper-legs are way to short and thin
and they lack details.  The body section is plain, it lacks something there
too, and it's sooooo long.  Well, I could go on about other parts too, but
you get the point.  I'm sorry, I'm trying to be constructive here, but since
I really find this thing horrible-looking, I can't find much positive to
say.  But I really like your work from the toes to the knees.  This part is
nice and if you consider my proposition of starting over, maybe you should
leave that intact.

I'm sorry if I'm harsh.  I decided to say what I think without any fear of
hurting someone else's feelings.  I probably did, please accept my apologies
in advance.  I think you have talent by looking at your previous mechas, so
I have no doubt that with work, you will achive a giant mecha that will be
both beautiful and complex.

Again, I'm sorry if you are hurt by this post.  My goal here was not to hurt
you, but to give you an honest opinion about your mecha.  I think that
sometimes, a good criticism is necessary to become better at something.
That's what I tried to do.

Terry

(...) Hey, it's your opinion and I can certainly respect that. The colorscheme is one that just doesn't translate into photographs very well at all and I'll freely admit that it's the darkest creation I've ever built. From the knees to the toes (...)
