More over at the blog. link John Bear Ross wants me to write a note to his wife telling her he was right. I was right once with my wife, it's not worth it. |

Yeah, I'd bought two sets of those ground crew after JBR showed them, too. Where'd that Landmate come from? |

is that battle armor supposed to be worn by a human? i am guessing its actually a robot. |

They really go together pretty well! I think I need to make another HLJ order very soon. You did some really great paint jobs there, Mark. Like the crew scheme a lot. Consider it snagged. |

Do you have a link for a shop that stocks them? I cant find them anywhere. Edit: Found them link |

@Heinz: The human sits in the lower torso, legs go down into the thighs of the suit. Landmates with exposed 't-rex arms' use a master-slave rig, with the little master arms basically being waldo controls for the big slave arms. This is the basic idea, straight from the sketchbook of Masamune Shirow himself:
One of these days, I will have a semi-functional LM suit to wear to an Anime con. |
