My first Mecha (wip)

salm · Post by **salm** » 2004-04-19 01:52pm

hi
i had a little spare time during spring break and started making a mech.
the arms are not finished yet and the head and the link between upper and lower body sections are still missing entierly.
i´m quite satisfied with the feet, the legs, the lower body and the shoulders, even though i might add some more detail to the shoulders. i don´t like the upper body and i´ll redo it if i find the time.

atm i can´t think of a good head. maybe something round in order to take up the round elements from knees and feet? whatcha think?

that´s because of it´s huge penis which i used my own as reference for.

(actually that´s the power generator)

i forgot to mention that the mech is based on a front mission mech.

Don't know much about mechs, nut it looks nice. And one thing I really light is that I can see it very well. Hte lighting is proper made.

Like you pointed out very much Front Mission flair to it.

For a start without the details going into it(gun ports or whatnot)...nicely done.

very nice, but it doesnt look like it could move very well, lookes kinda sluggish really. Still really cools tho

Am I allowed to hate you? Looks good, but the legs look a little spindly for the body.

Pretty good. I think the feet are a bit tiny tho, it might just fall forwards.

EDIT: or backwards.

EDIT2: or sideways, if you look at it too hard. In fact, in soft ground those thin needle-like toes are going to dig right into the dirt and won't really support much of anything.

EDIT3: crap, they're going to dig right thru concrete, considering the weigh of the whole thing.

I finally got it, i figured out how to copy and paste

Me a!m smartz, me a,m n0t stup!d

And, nice mech. Looks like it could transform into something to me, like an artillery cannon or a tank, but that's just me

Might want to add a heel type projection from the back, maybe on a joint so its flexible. Just my opinion though.

Ok, now we're talking

I didn't want to comment on your other post because I didn't want to nitpick on the same thing (I had a suspicion it hadn't changed a bit, but thought you might have replaced the older one)
