Iv always wanted an origional concept idea, and after much trial and error iv finally formed my own design. this is not the first picture but the rest were just screwing around and the like. while working on this picture (in class, where else?) i only had pin accounting for the butchered right leg and right leg gun turret. to me these are glaring mistakes but this is by far the best working design.

these are some modular weapons i'v cooked up. (sorry for the back, i was working out a mechanical ball and socket joint)

The mech dosent look very stable to me.

I have agree with the previously posted sentiments: The feet seem too small to support the machine, as do the upper legs. It looks to me like you could streamline the upper legs into a single, bigger piece. The modular weapons look good.

i wasn't really going with feasibility, i just wanted a highly mobile leg design. if you want a better point to criticise, it would be the ball joints... theres no way those things would hold :D i think there are way too many human leg styles out there and i think that if a robotic platform was made on this scale it would have some weird leg work going


also, i wanted the legs to fold up, a point i forgot to mention above
