Hi Everyone, I know I've been quiet for a while. I actually built some of these things a while back and just haven't posted them. Anyway, check out the following: Spiffcraft DX LM-7 Linebacker Light Mecha UD-6 Vulture VTOL Sprite-EF Escort Just (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) WOW! a transforming spiffcraft...*pauses.. looks again*... excellent. Amazing feat of engineering gettin all that to stuff up under the craft.

(...) Well you guys have Joel Kuester to thank for suggesting that I should try to make a transforming Spiffcraft. :^) Those Bohrok limbs seem to work fairly well. It still isn't as compact inside as I wish it could be. If I were able to fold the (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Holy Guacamoli! Sir, Grand Admrial, SIR! WOW! 1. Spiffcraft DX: Very cool! Good use of the cloud car parts! It makes my base model with beaded seat covers look rather plain...I'm going to have to go for the upgrade. :) 2. Linebacker: I really (...)

I guess, in retrospect, it's exacatly what one would expect from the grand admiral, considering his love for both (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

What would you like your payments to be... we can work something out. Low interest! (...) Thanks :) (...) (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

M-Dogg represents! Cool stuff! I think the transforming Spiffcraft takes the cake! Swizeet! And I see the Grand Admiral's face has been updated and looks good...well uhhh, relatively speaking considering who he's modeled after ;) Great job on (...)

(...) Those are really cool! I like the spiffcraft-mecha alot, and the vulture too. Though is it possimble too shrink the spiffcraft? It looks BIG. Can't wait for more!

(...) There's no way I know of to get a decent transformation and keep the Spiffcraft at its former size. By using the Bohrok joints, I was able to make it fairly poseable. (22 years ago, 27-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Incredible stuff as usual Mark...worth the wait! I especially like the Vulture - ships that have a 'broken main beam' are always so interesting, and this one is definately so. It reminds me of a hunched behemoth, ready to feast on the carcases of (...) (22 years ago, 27-May-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

The Admiral(ahem, Grand Admiral)isn't going to be happy when he finds out how much it costs to insure a battle craft. The rates are astronomical. (...)
