Hey Chris!
So glad to see new stuff from you. I love how you go for quality over quantity.
Every once in a while you show off a mecha that raises the bar in terms of
posability and general “coolness”.
What first caught my eye is how stylish this mecha is! From your posts and
discussions concerning mecha, you come off as very technical and a “function
follows form” kind of guy, yet your stuff keeps getting prettier to look at
each time. ;-)
The lavish waist and shin coverings, ornate head, and overall increased
detailing all make me smile. You’ve really come a long way Chris, and I mean
that as a big compliment.
Now if only you gave your mecha “toys” (and by toys I mean huge freakin’ gunz)
to play with, all would be right in this world. :-D
Good luck with any future endeavours,
Mladen Pejic
BTW what is that trans-blue piece you used for the “eye”?
