Thanks, a lot of love and love of destruction went into them.

Oh, if you want to see all I've done so far, here's a link to my brickshelf page. Most of everything is in the unit & spacecraft section.

So I had a game with IVhorseman last month, so I had to bring out some of my lego. I wasn't able to bring all of it out to build something new, but I was able to improve on some of my old designs.

Like the Iron Maiden
This was her original design the IM-3, it was already redone before it saw any battles.

Image




The IM-4 is probably more familiar since it has seen it's share of battles. With a redesigned lower leg, better aromr plating, & two humaniod arms. Also redesigned weapon pods & a handheld weapon.

The IM-5 has just been rolled off the assembly line.

The weapon pods have been redesigned again, so has the battle rifle. Oh, and added a fighting knife.

Image

Redid the lower leg a little, and designed a new foot. Notice the left leg's slightly different plating.

Image

It's to accomidated the pilot on how the cockpit now opens.

Image

Also with the new foot design, I am now unrestriced by that old Lego piece I used, and now I can start on another one.

Oh HELL yeah! Glad you figured out the foot thing. Maybe this one can take more than two shots? I think multiples of these will do your army wonders.

A wise man once said that the only thing better than something cool is to have more than one of it. This is super awesome now. Also, that new missile launcher is pretty cool.

Ha! Or twenty shots depending on the roll of the die!

Hmm... I went though my stuff, if I can find two specific peices, I think I can make one more. 45th might be more mecha than tank pretty soon...

With this thread I had never realised how close ROC's building techniques where to my own - thus I may have to adapt a few of these ideas to the Scythian Titanus Battlemech.

If I can play my cards right - I may even be able to field two of the buggers as well - now if only some day an Iron Maiden/Titanus battle could be realized . . .

You know what? That third new one should have a big-ass, two-handed gun for blowing shit right the fuck up. Have it fill a designated AT role.

A battle with a Titanus would be kool to see, especially my fighting knife to your pilot! :D

I completed the third one last night, complete with a clip to carry the battle rifle. I also made a pair of carbines the other night, so I can work on heavier weapons. Also I am still doing a part assessment for the fourth one; I have alternates for most of the pieces except for two. The color scheme will be off though, so I'm thinking maybe I should make a lighter scout or a personal mech for my hero....
