Right on Bryce! You have been a great source of inspiration to me. I love
the colors too. Good combo....I agree. I wanted to go for a "Roll cage" feel
for the chest. So when I added some slopes I ended up with an odd amount of
studs, nothing that relates to the sub-structure Brick/plate config. in the
chest.

Yes, I could'nt seem to avoid adding a little life thru at least one motor!

The head moves side to side in a closed loop system. Utilizing a fav cam
Mechanisim tried and true.

These two pix show the dilly:

Thanks again for the words, you have always been one to give good feed-back!

Those colors look so great against the green backgrounds. And the dark grey
and red go excellent together.
Now for the model...Great design! Like I said before the insectoid legs are
great as fingers. I like the chest area as well. Question: is it motorized?
I saw a battery pack on the back of the mech.

Hey all, It's with great delight I present the "RG Mech".

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=4685

Inspired by people I've met on Lugnet as well as it's founders. Thank you so
very much for helping to create a place for crazy Lego builders like myself.
Just as much thanks and praise to Brickshelf and it's founders for helping
people to come together and share their creations.

I second the thanks to Todd and Kevin.

It's always been my dream to share with other like minded people what I do.
This forum in this age of the internet I guess was bound to happen in one
way or another. But, it is here on Lugnet and Brickshelf that I first began
to understand a community that is diverse and yet united in creativity.

You seem more an artist than an AFOL. I guess Lego is just your artistic medium?

I very much hope that any contribution I have or can make to this forum will
help to inspire future builders and those who already participate so
wonderfully.

You're an inspiration to the mech group.

Lastly but not least, Thanks to Lego for producing a great system that I may
never grow tired of the possibilities.

THANK YOU
