tchuk-norst Posted September 9, 2012 To all who may have seen my other post a couple of days ago, this is not the giant quadruped mech I'm building. This is in fact a biped. Ok, here we go! The hiss and pounding of the dreaded machine. The soldiers of the trenches cower in fear at the sound. The Imp! With two powerful legs built for all terrains, a 6cm cannon on its left side and a smaller machine gun on the left. Here we can see the vicious pilot of the dreaded machine. (I apologize for poor picture quality, I couldn't get a light in there.) On this side view we can see in more detail the two powerful legs and the array of greeblings in the inside and back. If you like this please tell me and I can put more pictures on. I thoroughly enjoyed building this and I hope you enjoy seeing it. C/C appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cooper Works Posted September 9, 2012 I like! The legs and feet are slick! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tchuk-norst Posted September 10, 2012 I like! The legs and feet are slick! Thanks Cooper Works! Your MOCs were a big source of inspiration while working on this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Si-MOCs Posted September 10, 2012 Absolutely lovely. Great looking Mech, I love the bubbly circular body. And the windscreen/blast protector mechanism is neat! My only complaint is the feet. The little hands don't do it for me, if you're going for toes I think it has to be a little more substantial. Rotating them up towards the shin I think would look better. oh! another idea would be to use some 1x2 dark green plate and put it as a stripe through the windscreen area. I think it would add some interesting asymmetry to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) I agree. The feet are very elephantine, and the hands ruin that effect. Edited September 10, 2012 by DraikNova Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tchuk-norst Posted September 10, 2012 Absolutely lovely. Great looking Mech, I love the bubbly circular body. And the windscreen/blast protector mechanism is neat! Thank you very much! My only complaint is the feet. The little hands don't do it for me, if you're going for toes I think it has to be a little more substantial. Rotating them up towards the shin I think would look better. I agree. The feet are very elephantine, and the hands ruin that effect. As for the feet my original inspiration was from Keith Thompson's artwork of the Stormwalker for the Leviathan. For example Stormwalker (I don't know how to get just the picture in the forum, sorry.) But I really see your point. Should I just take all the "toes" off and leave it like that? Or do I need to re-do the whole foot area? oh! another idea would be to use some 1x2 dark green plate and put it as a stripe through the windscreen area. I think it would add some interesting asymmetry to it I would, but I don't have any 1x2 dark green. To all, thanks for liking my mech! I'll be putting up more pictures soon!

Axis600 Posted September 10, 2012 I love just how useful those dark green pieces are for steam and dieselpunk. Well done, tchuck-norst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tchuk-norst Posted September 10, 2012 Here are some more images! Here are the loyal imperial troops standing resolutely with the Imp. And here is the greebly, diesel-y back. Thansk for all the nice responses! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
