<\/a>Front on Pose with Sword and Shield<\/p><\/div>\n
Everyone knows that all mecha need swords.\u00a0 Despite all the high tech, it still boils down to basic swordsmanship.\u00a0 You can see Red Mecha’s “zapper” (as Cael calls it) laying useless to the side.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Side view with Sword and Shield<\/p><\/div>\n
You can kind of see the little “kabuto” hat\/helmet I was trying to give this guy to match the little “mustache” on the front glazing.\u00a0 You can also see the serrations on the sword.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Side view of Shield and Sword<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>Rear view with wings closed and angled<\/p><\/div>\n
Originally, I wasn’t going to add wings but thought they would look alright.\u00a0 They add a lot of unnecessary weight, however, and so I had to drop the rotating engine pieces I wanted to add.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Wings partially opened<\/p><\/div>\n
You can see the “sneaker-ish” shoes with wing-a-lings.\u00a0 You can also see the mecha’s back.\u00a0 The wings don’t look too bad considering they were an afterthought.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Wings fully extended<\/p><\/div>\n
I also wanted to add a bit more to allow the wings to flip up horizontally, but again, the weight.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Rear with opened hatch<\/p><\/div>\n
Access to the red mecha, the “back” hinges up.\u00a0 Unfortunately, you can’t see the interiors too well, I need a better lens for close-ups.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Clenched fist and Raised Zapper<\/p><\/div>\n
Red Mecha holding the zapper with clenched fist.\u00a0 I supposed you could also equip the shield in combination.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Red Mecha with Zapper<\/p><\/div>\n
The bits with the grey vents is supposed to be a magazine.\u00a0 Any longer and it would have made the zapper even more unwieldy.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Point blank zapper<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>Red Mecha ready to lift off<\/p><\/div>\n
Or ready for a hug, I suppose.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Standing Red Mecha<\/p><\/div>\n
You can see the “hands” pretty good here.\u00a0 They actually grip things fairly well.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Red Mecha’s Weaponry<\/p><\/div>\n
I actually wanted to do a long rifle as well, but it would have been too long and difficult to pose.<\/p>\n
Extra Photos<\/p>\n
Thought I’d try my hand at a mecha utilizing some of the curved window pieces I like to use.\u00a0 The original idea was for a mecha on a much smaller scale, but with the geared pieces it had to get … Continue reading <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
