Great comment! I'll keep this in mind as I work on the other models. As
someone who doesn't
compromise, it won't be easy, but I'll work on it.

So definetly attempt to incorporate all the cool things you would like to
have into the robot. During the course of the construction if you decide to
opt out on an item or two, its often the best choice for the model.

Yep. As I mentioned before-IH probably would have been a better looking
model if I wasn't so set
on having a large cockpit inside it, but that wasn't something I was willing
to compromise on and
the model ultimately paid the price for my inability to live without a cockpit.

That is to say, the Model sometimes decides what it wants or needs.

'nuff said!

Just a little building phylosophy I enjoy.
