About this creation


Continuing with the mechwarrior inspired theme - here is my version of the locust scout mech. It's injected with a bit of color and it's scale is larger then my last couple while still being less then fig scale. This is a rather popular model and has been cutomized to my liking with a less boxy feel then the original model and maybe closer to the" unseen" inspiration. Basically, my design is a conglomeration of the different models I have seen of this mech. Intersting history behind these designs for those that do some digging. The mechwarrior fever continues...

A pleasure for the eyes! Loved every aspect of this mech, from the feet and thin legs (the hose in the end is killer!)to the missile pods, everything is perfect and very plausible. Keelah se'lai! |

Agreeing with M! THis is a unique, sleek, mech, not your average run of the mill "dawn forger". Very cool! |

Quoting Lord Star-Blazer
This is excellent! The color really stands out with the backround too, which is a nice touch.
Thanks, this is my go-to background. |

Thanks I wanted to retain the mechwarrior feel while bringing in a little of my own style. |

Quoting MortalSwordsman .
Awesome build. Love the shape and colour. Using the suspension springs as legs is excellent.
Thanks, I think the look suits a high speed scout, but unfortunately they are just for looks. |

Quoting Zach Sweigart
Nicely done. You've accomplished a difficult feat of combing technic and system pieces and making it look darn good. Hats off to you, sir!
Thanks, I am rather happy with the legs in particular, and discovered an interesting technic in the process. |

Quoting LukeClarenceVan The Revanchist
Nicely done, it's the empty spaces in the missile pods and upper torso that really make a colour scheme like this work. Very impressive.
Thanks you, I think the hollow and depressed areas catch the shadows and help give a predominate colored build some texture and contrast. |

I like the missiles heads.
Simply hose ends on technic pins, but they get the job done. |

Quoting Matt Mason
Definitely recognisable as the Locust, and those arms give it a slight Catapult feel to it as well. Great job!
Thanks man I did look at a variety of models while building this and I understand what you mean about the arms. |

Quoting flipinx cool
It looks Cool i like it, u used pieces that r not lego right, cuz 1 of them looks like a Knex piece
There are two pieces that are not lego - the antenna(MB) and the "front windows" are electrical tape. They could easily be switched to official lego elements but I used what I thought looked best. Everything else is lego brand. |
