MRL - Jade
Name: Jade
Type: Speed
Pilot: Grace Blitz
Special Ability: Burst Jump
Description: Every now and then, a racer enters a mecha into the Mecha Racing League that is just flat out unusual. Grace Blitz's Jade is one of those. Grace Blitz has a doctorate in both mecha engineering and entomology, so when she decided to design a mecha for the MRL, she modeled it after some of her favorite things: beetles and grasshoppers. Jade's six legged frame is incredibly stable and can handle numerous different types of terrain with ease. Unfortunately, it is not very agile on the ground. Thankfully, Grace designed her mecha with the Burst Jump ability. With Burst Jump, Jade fires the twelve boosters on its undercarriage to leap into the air. This allows it to get extreme air time and vault over the much taller competition. When the Jade isn't scurrying over the finish line in the speed division, it is often teemed up with Grace's brother Grit's Jasper in the MIX division of MRL.
- Build Notes -
This one was weird. I built this in under twenty-four hours, and it started out as a quadrupedal mech. I ended up changing it to be a beetle when I realized that the proportions were off. I am pretty happy with how this turned out, but it definitely isn't my best work.
