truthfully my first mech

Post by **Rody** » Thu May 08, 2008 5:44 am

yeah, finaly got around to taking a picture of this one.

it is my first ever mech.

click picture to go to the mocpage, though you'll get little extra info there

it is awfully red, because I have too many of those bricks(my brother likes formula 1 so a lot of ferrari sets got bought)

the lightsaber was... erm... I actually can't remember wich I built first the mech or the saber.
anyways the saber was not originaly made for this mech, but they just kinda fit together.

Nice mech there: simple but "mechy."

Nice design, good articulation. I think the shoulders could use something to make it look more imposing, pads or armor or spikes. Maybe huge missile pods. Those always look good.

a different eye colour would make it way better

Awesome, So do the wings on the back make it fly?

I can't really envision this thing flying so I'd say those are just there to make him jump farther.

They are clearly heat sinks. Duh.

I like the minifig arms used as fingers. I also think that black eyes would stand out a lot more.

Good articulation, okay armor, but the head is......well boxy. I supose I might be too harsh but if I don't tell the truth you can't improve it as well!

yeah, the head was pretty much an aftertought.
but I have improved, if you look at my second mech(which I posted earlier)
but for playability this one is the best I made.
