Hey, Sean. Glad to see you posting some creations. Maybe it's my sorry browser acting up, but I'm only seeing the Tripod logo when I click on your links. What's up with that? I'd love to see what you've made... -Teddy (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.general)

Wassssup All, I finally have pics of some MOCs I've made, it's taken awhile but at least now I dont have to wait to go to a friends house.

Thanks so much Paul! The intention of this guy was to go into mass production to allow the a.c.e.r. Custodians a way to get as many troops to the trouble as possible with overwhelming force. The small wing nose piece finally made this canopy useful (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

that is the coolest li'l mech i've ever seen it looks ez to build, and ezily replicatable i.e. one could have multiple copies of them post some instructions if you can plz the hinge/canopy connection on the nose is one of the most useful ideas i've (...)

(...) Or could it be that Space encompasses so many other themes? A moonbase is kind of like a town or castle. Monorails are similar to trains. Ships (at least some) are similar to cars. Mecha are at home in Space. Technic techniques (I love that (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)

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)

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)

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 (...)

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)

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)
