| Hi all, Like many others, I’ve been visiting this newsgroup for quite a while and I'm more than fascinated with all the fabulous creations. And now, finally, I have something ‘presentable’ to show and I’m hoping to get some pointers from all you (...) (21 years ago, 30-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha) !

| (URL) Hey this is cool, I see familiar techniques done in your own style. Cool. Check out how you did the skirt deal, by using the hoses as a place to fasten the clips, very cool. I like the feet alot. The joint tech in the arms and shoulders is (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Thanks for taking a look, it means a lot to me. Excellent color scheme? Well, I didn’t really have much choice on colors. I have a whole bunch of black and little bits and pieces of every other color. I’m glad you liked the skirt armor, it’s (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Its an honor to have Eric Sophie replying. Thanks. The joints aren’t as strong as they look. It takes a lot of effort to pose the mecha for shots. Most of my parts are pretty old so the clips used in the arms and shoulders aren’t as strong as (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Hey that's cool, its a good way to casually build your ideas. Lots of ideas everywhere, in picutres and in the peices themselves. Good job with the poses, I can appreciate the time it takes to get something you like and to get the Mech to cooperate. (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Very nice for a first. Hell, very nice, period. I can see a lot of stuff I want to steal for my next mortar headd (if you don't mind), very creative use of limited parts. The proportions are a little off (mostly in the torso, it's just a little too (...) (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| This is your FIRST Mecha?! I can't wait to see your future MOC's. It's going to be hard to one-up yourself with such a fabulous debut. I really like the garage door panels used for the sword. (21 years ago, 31-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Thanks for viewing my mecha. I really like the sword idea too, but it does look a bit short for this mecha. It'll probably look better on a smaller mecha. You guys give me so much encouragement that I can't wait to start building my next (...) (21 years ago, 1-Aug-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
