i think it would be safe to say that the name "mark neuman"

Ahem, Neumann (pronounced Noimann, proud German/Polack here)
or also spelled s n o w d a d d y

has come to be
synonymous with the term "chicken-leg walker".  when i saw your mech on
brickshelf, i didn't even pay attention to who it said built it.  i knew right
away it was yours.  it looks great!  excellent color scheme and leg design.  i'm
going to have to agree with allister:  the cockpit is phenomenal, but not very
practical in real combat.  i like how it protrudes away from the rest of the
body...very anime-like. weapons are slick-looking.  due to its smaller size
(compared to your other lumbering behemoths) i would assume that it might be a
scout class walker.

Nah, this is a light/medium mech.  Scouts are even smaller.  like these:

is it called "frog" because of the green color and the way
the legs are, or is it designed to "hop" like a frog too ;)?


A little of both really.  Just the image of this thing bounding around makes me
grin...  :)

Thanks Jason
