This is really a first for me. For years now, Ive 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 more! I finally got those ball joints to work. Sure it took some
time for me to get right, but I finally freakin did it! Haha!

Excellent poseablilty there Mladen. It makes photgrahping mecha all that much
more fun when you can wrangle them into all sorts of cool or kooky poses.
|
It sure does. ;-)

I agree to a degree with Soren about the pot belly though. Its not exactly
fear inspiring, although that could be useful on the battle field - cut em
down while theyre parlysed with laughter ;) No big thing, but I think the
proportions could be helped a bit by making the head slightly larger.
|
Aha! Thats it, the head. Yeah, I guess you and Soren are right after all. :-D
|
But hey, its your mecha, and its cool anyway. The hands are especially
neat. Who was it calling for new hand ideas recently? Here ya go. And the
weapons - far out. I just dont have my head full enough of military tech to
ever hope to come up with weapons as cool as you are consistently capable of.
Well done as usual.

Thanks Allister! I play a lot of WWII games and own several books about military
equipment, so I guess creating weapons is easier for people like me. A site
worth checking out if you want to get a quick grasp on military smallarms from
WWI to the present is Modern Firearms &
Ammunition. For vehicles and larger calibre weaponry, you can try checking out
Army Technology and
FAS. Hope this helps
