Condor.'s photostream

Title says all! This is something I've been working on along with the help from Sander!

So far we have these done:
[X]Side Hangars
[X]Bridge
[X]Shield Generator ball like thingies
[X]Engines
[X]Bottom Hangar

This has taken a little over a week so far. All that is left to do is some sensor array type thingies, and the massive interior.

Excuse me for butchering the Star Wars vocab.

After seeing the various faults in their previous model, UROW and PAMP engineering specialists put forth a massive effort to enhance the Ashigaru. Problems with the first mobile suit varied from squishing the pilot in the chest compartment to having a lack of stable footing.

The cockpit is now in a small enclosed structure on the back of the mobile suit. Though this made the pilot more vulnerable, the pilot had more arm space for a faster reaction to any oncoming enemy rocket propelled grenades.

I'm much more happier with this version. Thanks for the tips Wimbeh and Fate ^_^

Various inspirations tagged -----|>

Wimbeh and Fate, why u inspire me so much >.<

The PAMP Small Armed Mobile Suit- Ashigaru, or 'Light Feet', was the first design out of hundreds made by PAMP and UROW specialist that passed inspection. The previous versions of the 'Small Armed' class suits were constantly put to shame by the ridiculously 'picky' inspectors. A giant problem was that the inspections on the suits took such a long time that the government was worried that no suit was going to see the front line before the NCR continued to invade Japan.

In all honesty, this photo does not to the mech justice. Also, ever have that feeling in your stomach where you look at something of your own, and you're like "Hey, this kinda' sucks" after you've worked on it for a long time. I just did.

Anyways, Comments and criticism appreciated, yadiyada.

I'll probably just delete this soon :\

'We pull upon the risers, we fall upon the grass;
We never land upon our feet we always hit our ass.
Heighty-Teighty Christ Almighty who the hell are we?
Zim-Zam God damn we're Airborne Infantry!'

:<What the hell are we supposed to do now? The LZ is atleast 10 klicks east of here and we're supposed to rendezvous with the rest of the 206th by sunset. And the sun's almost down now.
:<Quit your complaining. Just stay alert.
:<I wouldn't have to stay alert if we didn't have to jump out behind enemy lines.
:<Pipe down. Some of our company must've made it down here already. Check your corners, shut the hell up, and stay frosty.

FWI, that orange-y reflection on the wall is supposed to be the sun >.<

Not the best description, I know. This thing was a bitch to photograph. I even had to crop out some of the other details. So with that, I'd like to say sorry for the blurriness on some of the areas and for all the reflections everywhere.

I was actually going through a builders block. But then I kept looking at Chris'/Wimbe's/Shadow Viking's photostreams for too long. Window pane idea belongs to Shadow Viking. I hope you don't mind that I tagged you three; feel free to untag yourself.

Any feedback of the sort would be great.

Just one of the models I received from my brother in Japan. I have yet to build any of the other ones and plan on doing them tomorrow.

Happy New Year!
