Hi Erick, I have been getting caught up on what I missed while I was offline for a month and I just noticed your post. Nice MOCs! The Hornet demon is pretty cool. The castlevania thing turned out well. I could tell what it was right away, so that is (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.castle)

Very cool. I've always been impressed with the way you balance spindly-leggedness (is that a word?) with industrial-strengthitude (definitely not). As Andrew said, the textures are great, and the cockpit is exactly the kind of tangled mess I would (...) (22 years ago, 19-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.castle)

Yow! Great cockpit, just can't get enough of that hinging action! Gotta say though, the head is my favorite part. I agree with Tony, the ankles look funny on a mecha of this size. Take care, Soren (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.castle)
