[MOC] Mobile suit "Handyman"

[Exetrius]

Hello, sci-fi forum dwellers! 

I'm new to this subforum and this will be my very first MOC here! After watching Evangelion Neon Genesis and Mobile Suit Gundam: 08th MS Team, I was inspired to build a mech of some sort. Today, I proudly present my first mech: "Handyman". 

 

Handyman is a Utility Type mobile suit, built for a wide range of tasks. Its light armour allows for good articulation and agility. Handyman has counterweighted shoulders, to facilitate carrying heavy load around, a multi-tool left hand for salvaging, powerful light units, shoulder-mounted shooters and a retractable arm blade for minor combat.

 

Aside from its utility programs, Handyman also has a recreational mode:

All the Soldier Type mobile suits are envious of these breakdance moves! Bloody utility peasants...

 

"Catch!"

 

"You better keep your distance, mate! I have a power dagger and I'm not afraid to use it!"

 

 

Handyman is operated by a single pilot, who is seated in the torso: 

 

Thank you for viewing! I thoroughly enjoyed this build and it has further awakened my interest in sci-fi builds.  I hope you like it as well, C&C is very appreciated!

All things aside, I love the mech, but the dagger could stand to be a bit bigger.

 You've got a point there! For the dagger, I wish I had that blade piece in silver, so that it wouldn't contrast so much with the handle. Maybe I will put some effort into making a proper accessory, later. Anyway, thanks for your feedback!
