Comments and criticisms welcome, and yes I’m aware the head is oversized :^P

Oh what a pleasant surprise! I logon and bam, there is your finished Roo Mech!

Well sir, you are the first and it is quite original. The overall form is very nice. I love the choice of colors. The Head is very cool and it has a good deal of personnality. Not to big at all IMHO.

I’ve been dying to see how you were gonna do the legs. They look great. I really like the way the legs came out. Cool pieces everywhere.

The pilot cabin is great!

..and of course I told you that the Tail and rear section is excellent.

The claws at the ends of the arms are cool too.

My only honest critique is this: When you get a chance, lengthen or enlarge the size of the arms just a wee tad. I know they are supposed to be short, but they just need a little bit more beef. Just a slight bit.

Otherwise, you have a fine creation!

congrats!

Here's my entry for the comp. Thanks for the extension Richie - I almost didn't need it :) I might do another one now. Pardon the lack of backstory, but it's late, I'm tired, and I'm just happy to get the thing finished, so please enjoy the pics. (...)
