Cool! You managed to use two rather difficult pieces together to make a really cool looking torso. The canopy with the "18" is perfect. The mech's got birthing hips but it balaces out nicely with the upper body. Making kind of a figure eight shape. (...) (23 years ago, 6-Feb-02, to lugnet.gaming, lugnet.build.mecha)

Okay here's number two. It's a medium-sized rocket Mech for an upcoming BrikWars game. It has two banks of 4 MkII missiles and two sets of 2 MkII lasers. With extra armor (if I've done the math right) bears it out at 180CP (sans the pilot). Anyway, (...) (23 years ago, 6-Feb-02, to lugnet.gaming, lugnet.build.mecha)

Thanks Mark. Well, we haven't had our game yet (it's not until the middle of next month - I'm notoriously lax in having my forces ready in time, so I'm starting early). When we do, there should be a fair amount of pics. I thought about using hinges (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.gaming)

I thought this was a fine first mech. The next few things you might want to work on is softening up the edges a little bit, and make the legs a little more mobile. Legs that are perpetually stuck facing straight forwards give a mech a strange look I (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.gaming)

Wayne, cool little fella for a mass-produced Brikwars army. But I think there's a few too many colors in there for my tastes. Plus, I'm not a big fan of those dome plate thingies for feet.

Nice Job, Wayne! It's got all the basic requirements of a 'mech'-thin legs, big feet, joints and guns. As basic as it is, that seems to be a great starting point for something larger in the future. As much as I like the ears, I'm not sure they fit (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.gaming)
