100_3340 Originally uploaded by JordanTN JordanTN recently posted a whole series of these rather nifty little mechs, ideally scaled for Mechaton. Hop over to the flickr page and check out the different designs. Cheers Malcolm
crane01 Originally uploaded by bermudafreze I can scarcely believe that we failed to blog this marvellous microscale mech crane from Kyle Vrieze. It was created as part of the Civilian Mecha Contest a couple of months ago and I was astonished by it back then. Who knows why it wasn’t blogged. Not only is the [...]
Underwater Research Hardsuit Originally uploaded by Pyreƒyre My third and final post for day one of the new posting policy and another design of mech that would be useful in underwater games. Intended to be something around minifig scale, this hardsuit by Pyrefyre would actually make a rather nice underwater mech design. Cheers Malcolm
Deep Sea Exploration Mech 8 Originally uploaded by onosendai2600 Now here’s something you don’t see very often: underwater mechs. There are a few undersea hardsuits kicking about, but dedicated underwater mechs are a rarity. That’s why it’s nice to see this fellow from onosendai2600. And it nicely kicks off the posting theme for today: underwater [...]
LAV-74 Mecha Mode Originally uploaded by Pyreƒyre Pyrefyre has designed some lovely little mecha (in Mechaton-appropriate scale, no less) that transform. Good work! Cheers Malcolm
MgR-808 Karma, top Originally uploaded by jed_september Finally got around to taking some photos of this. Built a few weeks ago, but due to travela nd other commitments, I’ve never actually done anything with it. Nevertheless, here it is. Based on the mini-frame by Squieu, I find it nicely poseable and chunky, but not too [...]
Harder Suit Originally uploaded by Pyreƒyre This was blogged on Brothers Brick a little while ago, but I just found it and had to share. A quick head swap would make for a very dynamic mech. Unfortunately, it uses a few of those droid bodies I’m coming to hate (because I don’t have any). You [...]
If you are looking for a little bit of inspiration outside of the usual Lego sources, then why not take a trip over to the blog of model builder and web designer Michael Fichtenmayer and check out some of his giant robots, powered armour suits and assorted vehicles. His skill in building and painting various [...]
This guy by Mǝmory of the Young Spacers Association is a pretty simple build, but great posing and photography make it look very nice here. The arm joint is a pretty cunning combination of two lever bases around a lever. It makes a remarkably flexible joint, though it looks a little unusual. There’s a whole series [...]
The astute amongst you will have noticed that we have yet another new page on the site. A small, but destined to grow, selection of the very best in Mechaton frame design. You’re welcome! Cheers Malcolm
