Whoa, I've said it before and I'll say it again: This thing is NUTS!
What I like about it and your building style is, the way you use really
wierd parts and peices. There are some design techniques that are really cool.
The building experience write up was a joy to read.
The pilot cockpit is very cool.
The feet are nice as well as aspects of the Legs.
The hips use unussual parts.
The face is just crazy.
The whole concept of "Temporal Mechwerks" is very interesting.
I see so many unussual and unique elements.
Hey is that those Trans Yellow 1x2 slopes in the middle of the face?
They look like a beak. Simular to the beak in a Squid or Octopuss' mouth.
The bevey of Brown parts is rare to see.
Jeesh dude, that thing is deserving of the name you have given it!
So, my question is this:
Dave that thing is huge! Will you take some of the Joint tech and
incorporate the ideas into another yet to be made creation? In other words,
what would you like to make next?
What are some of your other ideas?
OH, BTW, I see how you used the RoboRider gear boxes and tendered them with
that Ball joint technique on the end of the drive shaft. How did that end up
working for you? I remember you showing me the idea.
Lastly, the caption names are funny. Like - "Shaq Feet" !!! LOL!
Congrats.
Critiques? Eh, not necc. Your embarking on a Journey. That's a heck of a
frist attempt at a "Biggie". Bottom line is you took your time, rebuilt
parts of it and set your own pace. So for me, that's cool. Everything is a
learning experience.
Thing is, I bet it can takes Bryce's Rice Cakes, heck I better put mine away!
Ohh Ohh, I just had a thought: How cool would it be to have IH lurk in a
swamp. Imagine seeing it rise up from some murky swamp waters! whoa.
Be a fraid, be very afriad.

| (...) From you, Eric, that's a mighty high compliment. Thanks! (...) Like Bryce, my take on it is this: if no one else is using the part, then I will. That was a BIG influence on this model. (...) Thanks (...) That was the one thing I could have (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
