Don't worry, I'm still a WIP, but I just wanted to finish it's base late last night. I really don't like tha balance of colors, the back, and the plasma cannon details. I was just curious what I should label it as....

the arms are a bit sticky and you should change the guns since the combineation of dark grey and dark bley is bad.

Yeah, my first order from Bricklink I made a couple hundred dollar mistake and I now have A LOT of dark grey peices without realizing there was a difference. I was just trying to make use of the tubes.... I guess I'll have to order the correct color now, didn't realize how much it sticks out on a digicam with flash.....

Great job though! I remember seeing the foot of this in the corner of another photo, and figured my patience would be rewarded. Which it was.

Thanks.... Here's another pic....

A Dungam Mobil Fuku is the size of an AC or Evangelist Cyborg. They're all the same size. I'd call what you have there either just a mecha or if u want it could be considered a MT.

i hate the colour change as well and i hate the fact that grey and bley stand out against each other!

I actually like the color change. Gives it a more worn-in look.

That said, I think that the best way to flesh this thing out would be to extend it sideways more. If you've got a rotating top torso, you want it to be wide and squat. And of course, greeble the hell out of the sides.

i refer to it as a scout mech or an easy target. take your pick.

btw the first pic is funny cause if you look at it's left arm it looks like it pushed the walking trash can over lol

I prefer new grey, or bley. Old "grey" was dark-olive green.

That's right an MT's (Muscle Tracer) I forgot about them.... I think I'll go with that Wiki has a good descripton of it. Now back to the main topic. I found a cheap way to handle an AC, I took a pic this morning but I forgot to bring it to work. If I have time this weekend I'll post it.
