Can't leave this alone, so I'm gonna get some Highlander time in. Will show some work on the alternative laser/machinegun arm tomorrow.
When we sell this one, we'll install grommets in the hip joints for cable management, instead of simply leaving it all hanging out. I just wanted to get it up and running ASAP, because I like the shiny lights...

Been gathering steel for the RVN-3L project, need a bit more sheet metal according to the drawings right now. That one will take a couple of weeks to get built, once we get started. We're acquiring a plasma cutter for the project, so it WILL be an accurate 6-foot-tall model.

(I can't weld worth a damn, I spend all my time on the mill)
Edited because I just realized this is the Internet, and the term Fabrication Fetishist might be taken literally. Rule 35 people.

Anyway, here's a couple of close-up weld pics...
First, the ankle area:
Here's a shot of the shoulder LRM-pod from above:
My brother is outraged if I even attempt to grind some of his more artistic welds, but has decided to let me live. The ankle area is composed of quarter-inch plate steel, and I ground out his welds to a smooth rounded finish on the edges. On the upper ankle, you can still see the welds where the lower leg attaches. No point in grinding those thin welds on the sheet metal of the LRM pod.

Seriously, that's awesome! Does it run slightly cooler if you dip its feet in water?
