ShadowScythe inspired me to do things

Mechs are cool.
Image
These are some tanks. Left to right: big tank, normal tank, rocket tank and another tank I guess.

Image
'Small' humanoid mechs. Can be armed with various weapons. Leftmost mech is a better armoured variant.

Image
Dreadnaught and a four-legged variant. Also weapons. Also minifig for scale. I don't know if that is how the scale for MFZ-frames works but it sure works for me.

Image
Apparently this frame is called the Hollander. Looks cool.

Image
Another frame I stole from somewhere. Don't think it had a name.

Image
Something I did not steal, yay! Big tank with arms, well armoured, many guns, very slow.

Image
Chub, apparently the Soren-variant, with gun and sword.

Image
Weird chicken-leg walker. The claws on either side can leash an opposing mech with energy. The laser cannon in its mouth then melts through the armour.

Image
Fat floating mechs. Left one unarmed.

Ok some more shit. Who needs more shit? That's right, you do.

Image
Four-legged walker, with missile pods and machine guns.

Image
Sniper walker. That gun'll wreck some mechs for sure.

Image
Humanoid mecha called the 'Cricket'. Nimble assassin bot, with huge solid light sword and overload blaster.

Image
In action.

Image
Souped up Cricket. With an even bigger sword and a pulsar overloader. Also spikes.

Also, LDD update happened. Mini ball-joints!

Love them all. I might have to build an eight armed version of the cricket.

All of this stuff is great, but I can't get over the Cricket. God, that thing is so cool.

Seeing all of these was an excellent way to start my morning.

Go ahead, I'd love to see them put in action.

Cooked up a few more things. I might update the OP with better pics of the mechs and some descriptobabble later.

Image
First of all, this small frame. Gave it some roller skates. It looks sillier than I intended, but oh well.

Image
A very small vehicle. This thing is adorable.

Image
Image
The Arachne frame. Can be armed with two heavy weapons, two light weapons and has two anti-air guns on its shoulders by default. This frame's gimmick, besides having mammaries and too many legs, is that the abdomen houses many small unmanned fighters. Thus fighting this frame becomes a lot more obnoxious as you also have to deal with an army of bees plinking away at your armour.

Image
Last but not least, the Strider frame, built in a similar style as the Cricket. An odd little frame, moving around using stilts while using an antigrav generator to prevent it from landing on its ass. Its purpose is to neutralize small mechs and snipe critical points on the larger ones with its railgun. It also has an overloader to disable weaponry or other parts.

Really liking the little vehicle and the Strider.

oh right i had more stuff to upload

Image
Stole these from the hangar. Size-wise they are more like large hardsuits than proper mechs.

Image
This one too. This is a spider tank, actually. The wheely wheels can move about and do crawlies.

Image
Drone thingers.

Image
Random 4 legged mech with no name or proper colour scheme. I blame it on the fact that I suck at colour schemes.

Image
A harlequin kinda mech. I think i might have dipped too much into the harlequin theme and it just looks silly now.

Image
The mechtank has now become the Brute.

Image
And this one is called the Clunker now.

Image
A spidertank with shields and stuff. Hermitcrab might be a good name for it.

Image
A few Cricket-themed tanks, being a fast scout vehicle, a well-rounded tank with anti-air and anti-tank capabilities, a tank with two overload cannons and a tank with a big fat blaster.

Image
Inchers! These are basically the small versions of Striders as you can see, and more or less grunt frames.

Image
Strider got some more dakka.

Image
Cricket also had some changes, involving the knee joints and the weapon. It now also carries a single-shot breacher overloader. Nasty stuff.

And now for the big thing.
The big one.
It's pretty big see.
Image
Image
Image
Image
The Lanius frame. Inspired by Silverdreams plans to build an eight armed version of the Cricket, I decided to give it a shot. The result was a gigantic stalking frame with four blades and a distinct shape. Add to it that it is supposed to be a stealth frame that turns invisible and attacks mechs from behind, and it becomes quite terrifying.

hi i did stuff

Image
This thing got tentacle laser cannons now. Laser enema imminent.

Image
These little guys are related to the Cricket. Not sure what to call them. Springtails?

Image
Either way, while they are not very impressive in terms of weaponry, they sure are fast bastards.

Image
The Homunculus frame. Messed around a bit with ball joints, got this. Shoots with its fingers. The limb design has been reused in a much larger bot, you'll see.

Image
An airborne variant of the Superchub frame. No legs, all thrusters.

Image
The Turbine, a powerful airborne frame. Got small laser cannons on its shoulders. Why yes, the "turbine" is in fact...

Image
Beautiful.

Now, for the important bit.
Spoiler

Image
Image
The Bullcrow. A gigantic flying mech that is completely unarmed. No guns or anything. The Bullcrow punches, kicks, and slams other frames to bits.

Image
It also has a plane mode! Its arms can still be used, allowing it to bomb the enemy with their own units or punch planes out of the skies.

Image
The Bullcrow asserting superiority by kneeing a frame in the dick.

Image
Without armour and stuff. Looks weird huh? The limb joints featured in the Homunculus are visible here too.
