[LDD MOC] AG-05a, "The Heavy"

[swils]

My attempt to convert the mech unit "AG-05" in PS2 game series "Xenosaga: Episode 1" to a LEGO model. There are some definite weak points in the structure that I'll address once I've got the parts ordered to build it and toy with the design, but overall, I'm pretty satisfied. It's my first attempt at designing a mech frame from the ground up (though using some design bits from other AFOLs, in particular the shoulder joints, by MittenNinja). I had designed it for use in a tabletop game, "Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack", but upon completion, it stands at about 11 bricks high, nearing twice the height of the 'standard' frame used for scale purposes in the game.

Edit: Not sure if this should be in the LDD section, or Sci-Fi. If the latter, my apologies

Edit 2: The .lxf file is attached here. Thanks @DLuders, I completely forgot about doing that!

@ Swils: Nice MOC! This forum's moderator (Superkalle) will tell you that you can post your virual MOC in this forum IF you also post the LDD .lxf file. Here is how to do that. Otherwise, this topic will be moved to the Sci-Fi forum.

Thats one mean looking machine Very nice Mecha creation, the unique leg shaping makes him stand out

It's stuff like this that makes me wish LDD was a player design tool in a sandbox style LEGO based "design, create and interact" game, where ldd designers could cooperatively or competitively do more with their builds than just show screen shots or fileshare. =)

This is really cool.
