Woah, Gil's moving in build.mecha territory... I'm getting nervous... ;-) Dude, this little guy is awesome! I love how the legs flow so seamlessly into the rest of the body. Plus, it's compact form makes it ideal for transport and mass production. (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: The Hummingbird
 
This is neat little craft. It reminds me of the twin engine prop spotter planes used in Korea and Vietnam. Tough little birds that were versatile as they are spritely....much the same feel from your creation. I dig the dioramas showing the (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)

Wow, that's a really smooth design. Everything fits perfectly. It looks tough but compact. Great work. -Andrew (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thank you sir! I'm glad you recognized the SM-388 in this as it was indeed an inspiration for it. Actually, I first had the thought to do this mech after I built the Bodkin fighter using the JSF canopy and 'miniboat hull' wedges. With a workable (...)

  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thanks John! You nailed it with the notice of the oversized hips. I found I had to puff them out a bit to make up for the lack of upper appendages. Some of the design is inspired from the Zetradi mechs of Robotech Macross, smooshed together with (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Mnay thanks Stephen....the levers were an afterthought, but I liked how they looked. Originally there were hoses from the knees to the back of the thigh area, but it restricted the posability. I have to marvel at how those mecha guys get these (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thanks Thomas! I tried to keep the size down so I could hopefully employ it in larger platforms. Now onto those larger platforms....yikes. Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Solid...good to hear! That was the goal for this - a little machine that could take a beating in any situation. Thanks, -G (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
