I probably would have never got started otherwise. ;)

I might go for a warfare type of  mecha,maybe something like the mecha from the game  ring of red

Possibly more of a modern feel.
Might even end up looking totally different. ;D
I will make a start tomorrow.

Gonna be a challenge, but should look good when you get done

Quaralane:Thank you,Yeah i do finish builds quickly,i think Beork explained it perfectly on the ma.k forum how i manage to do it:

Quote
finishing at least a build per day, somehow bending Space Time to finish it yesterday.

Jingles:Thank you,yep I agree, it is more like a kitbash so a name change is in order  ;)

Grendels:Thanks mate.

I will do some painting tomorrow (Day off  :D) and possibly make a base for it.

Awesome.
Looks like a kit now that it's all pained up. Excellent work
