Im doing some research on a future flight model of mine, and im begining to wonder if i should just make the poor sap's leg bionic. Its a human-worn battlesuit.

So my random favorites popped up this bastard from a couple months ago

While this piece deviates from my own style, you wouldnt mind if I used it as a template for my own leg design? Im trying to build one that will fold to thigh-length in-flight and provide booster support that way... because we all know that legs are just dead flight weight really

heres what I've been workin up: [link]

I've been waiting to see a coloured version of this. The beige on the lower leg looks really great. However the thruster unit (i think) on the foot looks a little dull in the same colour grey. Maybe a little purple on it would look good.

yup, thruster it is. I kinda wanted it to look a bit flat. it has colour on the opposite side, so it’s not all grey.

Yeah I thought it might, otherwise it would look a bit odd. BTW my next stage of my mech design is done. I've managed to make the lower torso look quite decent. Anyway you can find it here [link]

actually, I prefer to post each picture on it’s own. think of them as progress reports until the design is finished.
and if you want a comparison pic with all the designs - just ask, and I’ll put one up simple as that.

I'm going to reply on this one rather than all 5 of your previous post.

It is nice to see that you visualize all of your designs this thoroughly, but I would advise not to bog yourself down with just one concept. I also think you should, rather than making two or three post on the same structural component of you mecha design, put all of your concepts on a single canvas and just increase the size of said canvas. We all wouldn't mind scrolling to see the different concepts if they were on a vertically large canvas. That way, you would save yourself time by posting one image, instead of three, and you would also grant the other members of DA the ability to compare all your designs in one place and comment efficiently
