(URL) Click on Image This is really a first for me. For years now, I've always made my bipedal mecha either flimsy thus requiring numerous stoppers (which are eyesores design-wise) to hold up or so rigid that their one pose looked awkward. BUT no (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !

No more VOTOMS for you :) That's a really nice model. Great color scheme, and an excellent array of weapons (although the rocket launcher just doesn't "do it for me".) Sole critique: The chest looks sunken. It's more in the nature of personal (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Congradulations! Glad to see that you finally are getting into the poseable mecha realm...does this mean now I have to start making loads of weapons for my mecha? ;-) Have you tried Geordan's ball stiffening technique? This mecha is cool. I've (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I did, very much. This is one of my favorites of yours to date. The color scheme is great, you incorporated the ball joints wonderfully, so that it doesn't look too flimsy at the joints, and you managed to squeeze a minifig into that teeny (...)

Then on the back, that grey inverted slope is used in (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

This is sweet! and it's posable! As others have said the bold colours are very cool. You're so good at using bright colours really well. Yellow would never come up on a real mecha, but you make it look convincing. I like the torso alot, it gives it (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
