Ok so me and 2DARK2C came up with a concept for a wounded warriors project. He sent me some fodder and this is what I came up with. Huge thanks to 2DARK for all the support. Hope you all like it.

Meet Leon Rigs aka Gears and his special companion at arms M.A.C. : Mechanized Assault Combatant. Together they are unstoppable on the battle field. Gears lost his legs in an attack 4 years ago but vowed to get back in the fight anyway he could. No medical discharge for this tough son of a gun. When he was healed and able he went to work on M.A.C.. Within 2 years he had completed his ultimate wounded warrior weapon that would transport him into battle and victory! In his first mission as he sped into battle he yelled, "You took my legs but you didn't take my FIGHT!!!"

Seeing this really makes me want to build some kind of giant robot walker. Maybe someday I will. Excellent job, it's a killer piece.

Missed this the first time through. Your mech work suffers from the fact it looks factory produced. You don't always see how much you've done to get there. So that before shot is especially striking. Nicely done. Amazing actually.

That said, the figure and the smaller chair are the highlights for me. SO much character contained in there.
