Standing at 14.5 inches tall, the Traikon is my first mecha with Gundam-style hip and leg armor. Special thanks go out Eric Sophie and MC7- the ankle assembly is a modular version of their recent mecha frame ankle.

Wonderful mecha Todd! I especially like how the colour scheme and repeated 6x6 dishes unify the whole. You achieved excellent harmony with this one. I also like the gun. :-D

Thanks, Mladen. The way I used those dishes was inspired to a degree by some of your designs to be honest.
  
The hands, although ostensibly sturdy, are out of proportion with the rest of the appendages. They also look too blocky. I definitely think you could pare them down a bit and actually make all the fingers posable.

  
Overall, well done! Hope to see you post more often, as I am a longtime fan of yours. ;-)

Yeah, they’re about 50% too big, and I realized that during the final stages of building, but I wanted them to be strong enough to hold the gun.
