BTW, im going to try and finish most of the helmet tonight, and maybe the forearms. i want to get most of the robot done by the beginning of next week so i have time to make changes. will post pics to keep you guys updated.
Talk about underground, I've been fortunate enough to have anime most of my life (Mexico started showing long time ago) and am intrigued by the plots that many quality animes show. I also discovered DC about 4 years ago and have kept a consistent collection :pface. Newbies in the other hand just care about quantity (pokemon, digimon, crapamon, they just don't care). And don't even get me started with cartoon network. I wouldn't watch anime from them even if I was getting paid...(censored, plot changed, humor, remarks, etc...) :pface
and act like we're serious and think it looks good.
