a professonal production, very good!
the scene doesn't do the mesh justice, though.

Excellent work. The only thing I would recommend is to make the feet a bit bigger for better support of weight. Unless this thing is very light, it might sink into the ground a bit in soil conditions.

My favorite mech! Nice, light, and with good jump ability...

In fact, I'd love to see her in the middle of a jump.

thanks all for your comments and critics... there are some interestings ideas, but few infos:
- this mech has 400.000 polygons and the whole scene contains 1.4 million polygons
- I need few second to rotate the scene in wireframemode
- renderings takes few minutes per picture..


I just will say that my computer cant handle this model for huge projects :-(


Now I will start with a new project (ARCHER MECH) so if somebody can help me to find
gread images of them would be great!
