You should have cross posted to build.mecha, we won't bite! We are the
experts here remember.

Knock yourself out. This was the prototype Jun made for the Kudryavka.
Here's the main gallery for more pics too.

No clue. But I bet you find them on http://www.bricklink.com though.

Possibly if you can figure out where and what to do with that that bulky
box. Everthing on hardsuits mechs have to be there for a purpose and they
have to be small. The major challange of any small mecha designer is to get
the most posablity with the smallest package.

Chris started the PCS and all his stuff is SOLEY trans clear, not smoke. I
would stick to that.

You need a mobile platform on planets and moons that have a higher
gravitational pull then Earth that could turn a human skeleton into jell-o.
You create super robust humanoid mechs with negative gravational fields in
the cockpits to get you around.

Maschinen Krieger. A FREAKING AWESOME series of small hardsuit models that
have been constantly made since the 80's. They are a retro-future,
industrialist view of mecha technologly that clashes with the fancy better
known mecha of the genre. Jun Nishizawa and Hiroki Nakanishi seem to work in
simmilar styles if you look here...

There you go. I think I suffiently answered all mecha questions. You ought
to stop into build.mecha more often and give some 'big-ups' to me and my
'peeps' and see what we have brewing.
