Description shortly after the invasion of Earth in 2356 SC-77 was tasked to build machines to counter the aliens war machines. the Devastator was the first LDM (Large Defense Machine) to be produced, compared to the Avalanche the devastator is more more heavially armored defensively as well as offensively as a result it is slower and less versatile. however this is entirely made up with its massive firepower (most noticeable the rocket pods) and high density armor which has kept it in one piece so far.

the interior and pilot can be seen Here

the main weapon is the custom built mark 3 Chain gun on the left arm, the ammo is capable of easily penetrating the armor of alien machines and can sustain a fire rate of 6000 RPM
the right arm houses a shotgun which fires a 200mm spread shell at 300 RPM, the gun is scavenged from multiple tank parts and is highly effective against the organic armor of the envading forces
there are guns mounted to the torso, 6 sets for a total 10 guns, firing a range of 12.7mm to 30mm bullets at a variety of fire rates
it is also equipped with dual missile launchers for a total complement of 44 seeker missiles and 6 heavy rockets which is the favorite means of destruction by most pilots

the dual heli-blade arms and foot-mounted jet assists are used to move it over barriers it is incapable of climbing, they can lift the LDM to a height of 10 stories although, it has been known to be pushed higher.

NOTES:

rebuilt the Gatling gun to be housed closer to the arm and placed the barrels higher up, as well as moving the laser to the front.
as suggested by many, I beefed up the heliblades. i tried some of the suggested blades but didn't care for that look. so i ended up doubling the bars instead.
also reattached the shotgun, moving it higher and closer to the mounting arm.
as well as adding some filler to the front of the cockpit

Nice size and good color choice for this one. The heli-blades look good visually and are a great low-tech option over jump jets.  The main weapons and overall proportions are well done. I also like the mix and integration of system and technic - probably some innovative solutions buried within. The fact that it seems to be somewhat articulated is also attractive.

Not sure if you really want any critical critiques from me, but I could offer a couple suggestions, and you can take them however you want. You obviously have your own style and there is nothing wrong with it.

1) Color blocking and color choices seem off in some areas, I realize that piece selection can affect this and sometimes nothing can be done about it. For instance - keep the black for weapons/blades/hoses and take it out of the feet will help the model seem more visually balanced.
2) The exposed joint on the inside of the leg bugs me a bit. Something to match the piece on the outer leg would work well for cover.
3) Reduce the number of missiles in rack in favour of providing it with a protective casing of some sort. Think it would look better and your pilot would thank you when is isn't reduced to dust because of one stray bullet.

Once again though - great mech - and I have looked at some of your others as well, they all seem to have an original personality to them, just not sure if you want any more long winded comments.

Thanks man!!! His articulation, isn't bad, probably could be better though, there's some shots of a slightly older version in some various poses positions in my gallery. Most of the work I did on the leg joints was put into stability first and then standing pose second, but as a rule they at least have the possibility of movement!

I love getting feedback when I get it!!!
If you want to do the same for the others then please do!!!

Coloring has been an issue for this one since day one, I really need to order more red Technic parts to get it balanced, its better than the old one that had orange thrown in there at random though!!!!


I could probably look into added some armor there, it wasn't before cause the legs were closer together and it would have hit


A-reducing the amount of missiles is not an option and if you think this one looks unsafe wait til I get the next one posted!!!!!
I might look at designing future pods with that in mind though!

Again happy to get some real feedback from a fellow mech builder!!!!!
I'd try to do the same for yours but the system based construction is still beyond my league!!
