GAV-3 Cheetah

Well, I lost the whole ******* description of the thing on the ******* Lego Gallery. (Pardon my "language". ) I usually post it there first so the .lxf hurries up first, but it didn't work and froze up! Anyway, the GAV-3 Cheetah is a medium battle mech designed to work in tandem with the GAV-2 Aucasaurus. It is faster and has more robust weapon systems, at the cost of armor and shielding energy, making it more vulnerable.

I'm pretty happy with the overall turn-out. I finished it awhile ago, but kind of got lazy... The armor directly above the ankle (the shell things) were inspired by an awesome MOC I saw on Google. Pretty happy with most of it, especially the weapons. I pretty much took the cannon of my GAE-1 artillery platform and plastered the barrel on the mech, with some very slim changes. I think it could use some work, and constructive criticism would be welcome!
PXR out.

I do love the details/greebling on this thing - you always seem to do fantastically with that, and the weapons setup certainly looks interesting. If I might make a suggestion - maybe rather than having the flat "shoulder panels" or whatnot, maybe just place the cannons directly to either side of the body of the Mech?
