About this creation
The Raptor AA-Prototype!
Built specifically and exclusively for space battle, the Raptor has a lot of maneuverability, sacrificing armor. Also with the sacrifice of armor, the Raptor is one of the fastest and lightest space battle mech I've seen. it has 11 thrusters.

The Raptor carries a NEX-AAR1 laser rifle.

The Raptor in action! This pose is really cool looking, if you ask me.

Just the back of the Raptor. Notice that it need not fire off all thrusters at one time.
Well, that's it on the Raptor. Expect more AAs soon!

Let's see, I like the idea of a lightweight mech with high mobility, the only issues I have with the MOC is thrusters, I really feel like you could stylize them more, make them appear to be thrusters even without the effect pieces, and I agree with RGF on the distribution, I feel that the torso, being the center requires more thrusters, other wise this mech is doing backflips if all the thrusters are at full power. Another issue is the head, I feel that is clashes with the style of the rest of the MOC, I like the simple approach though. Other than that, the only other issue I have is the lack of contrast, though you do have some with the green, I just feel that adding a small amount of dark grey would help, but it's not a huge issue. Overall, you have a nice lightweight mech, the frame is simple but has a style nonetheless, I just feel like there are some aspects that could be improved upon to take this to the next level. Nice work. |

I'm not really sure about the head, but the rest of it looks great. good work, LTE. :) |

The overall frame is pretty good, but your distribution of thrusters is off. Too many in the legs, and not enough in the torso. Having one on he each was a good idea though. ^Blub^ |
