Introducing my very first attempt at an insanely over-greebled Exo-Suit inspired mecha/hardsuit (in fact, my first self-designed mecha full stop): The Dragon!

LEGO Mecha/Hardsuit "The Dragon" by TheOneVeyronian, on Flickr

The model contains 511 parts and is nicknamed "The Dragon" due to it's armoured cockpit canopy (held ajar here to let you see the pilot) which vaguely resembles a dragon's upper jaw. It is primarily a mecha designed with combat in mind, hence the very well-armoured cockpit, but can also be used as an exploration mecha. This was mainly an exercise in whether I could do extreme greebling and actually started with the desire to use the specific hand design you see on the model in something.

Well, I hope you enjoyed looking over this big hunk of greeble from this novice! :laugh:

Thanks guys! :blush:

I'd love to build this beast-could you share the LXF :wink: ?

I'll get round to sharing the LXF in time, I've been meaning to start a Brickshelf account for a while for this purpose :grin: Once I do, I'll post it here. Just be warned that not all parts exist in the colours you see them in here :wink:

Great! Can't wait to build it!

It's almost got the feeling of one of those 'animate pile of smaller things' type monsters. Really great looking. I love the silver skeleton arms on the thighs.
