A great choice to make the dorsal fin double sides so all the studs aren’t
all on one side. I think this is my fave so far.
|
I totally agree. I see the sphenoid could not be rounded out but I think the
other new parts help shroud it’s boxyness; plus, the repetitious grill
texture in that area works very well (didn’t notice it last time). I came
across the Lionfish2 folder the other day but didn’t peek. I’m sure pleased
with the update.

You and JHK had a pretty valid point about the lack of roundness, so I did he
best I could on the neck (which is a marked improvement) and found wedge parts
for the body. The great side result was that I was able to put a plate on the
bottome so I can attach it to a stand. The dorsal fin is a big improvement, but
give credit to Paul Baulch for that:)

This thing is pretty sweet. Overall great form. Reminds me of my alternate
ReconMechSP walker seen here:
Folder. Great minds
think alike. ;P Congrats on your admittance to the PCSlabs staff! I too like
the pick the Admiral selected. Excellent repulsor lift “flaps”. The only
criticism I have is to change the front “nose” slope in some way. I think the
dark grey does not read PCS as much as a light grey one would. Another option
would be a 2x3 brick with curved edge.
|
Yours is a heck of lot simpler, which I envy:). You’re right about the nose
slope, and I’ll probably change it to light gray or black (I’m a rebel:)) The
legs are a pain to work with in making the craft stand, so much so I’m
considering replacing the legs with weapons pods.

MOC 3
RX-24 (Rex) from Star Tours
|
Rex is awesome! What a fantastic head design! Actually made me stop for a sec
to ponder the eyes.
|
Happy accident. Really. I was trying to figure out the eyes, and found the
binocs, and then found the Rock Raider helmet and took another cuple of days to
figure out how they would be held together.
| |
Keep it up! I would suggest giving the production PCS [witty acronym of your
choice] Mecha its own thread.
|
Maybe...after I work up the weapon pods.
Thanks!

That’s not noted on the reference. Odd.
