Finally, some of MY stuff
Here is a Summoner I built several years ago. It was a limited run...one of only a handful out there. It is too large for 1/60 but too small for 1/35. I would guess somewhere around 1:45. This is what we based the Battlemech Club Hellbringer on.

Nate's Legionnaire
From Nate:
I just finished my legionnaire from joyride. Its more of toy then a model but a little modification and some paint it came out looking pretty good. The thought of modifying the mech came after I read the mechwarrior book "call to arms." It is the second book of the Dark Age saga. Anyway, after reading the book and looking at battletech wiki on the legionnaire I got an idea what I was supposed to do but I had no example on what the modified mech was going to look like. The little foot note in the wiki said that the RAC-5 got moved from the torso to the right arm and with the freed up space from getting rid of the targeting computer, it allowed for 3 medium lasers. I had fun building this mech and weathering it was fun too. Its been awhile since I used a airbrush to weather so I used that for the bulk of the blacking. The hardest thing of the build was the decals. I used individual letters to make up the markings and militia identification. It was a slow and time consuming ordeal but it came out looking better then I hoped for.

Thanks Nate!
More Lego Mechs
Another installment of Lego Mechs!
From Nick:
This Loki is just over 16 inches tall at the top of the SRM launcher, which puts it in line with the scale I have been working with. As with my other models, has opening weapons pods and cockpit compartment. I hope you enjoy the pictures, and let me know what you think!

Hi All. School has kept me busy...I can't believe it has been a month or more since my last post. With Spring Break and my recent lay-off, it is make-up time.
Here are some pics from a fan who would only like to be known as "keen."
