Wanted to get another work in progress render set up, and a couple more test prints~
Similar 3 pre-posed held arms to the sturgeon kit, and I'm working through the rest of the main stuff.

June_Work in Progress 2

Just wanted to get some more work in progress renders up. I'm a little bit a ways from finishing the torso, just gotta wrap up the thruster piece, and then I can test print that too.

I don't usually get all that jazzed about my own sculpts, but this one so far has just been *chef's kiss* f...

June_Work in Progress 1

Originally TEOTH was gonna be the last like "actual" kit, and this was supposed to be a simple re-work alongside the StrurgeonV2. But uhhh that's not how this is goin so, it is now the last "full" mech kit~!

Green's new work, red's old.

You see I opened the AnglerGeist in f...

[May Release] Sturgeon Frame v2 Updates

(Edit May/05/2023: All of the pre-supported files are up for the Sturgeon/Kaluga/Beluga. I've got the plates on the printers currently, but everything should be good here now~

First off I want to start with a thanks to everyone for being patient with this release set, I know ...

May_Work in Progress 2

Just some more work in progress image sets for the modernizing of the Sturgeon:

Worked in a general undermount for the main weapons, so that they can be easily swapped too regardless of config. (slotted for 2 5x3mm magnets.) other then that started adding the standard undermounts for the s...

So besides moving across the country, and getting mostly set up (arguably if you can call a kitchen island workstation set up while I wait for desks xD, set up)

I've been working through the re-work/updates to the sturgeon frame. Most of the changes to the actual frame are aesthet...

lil' april update:

As I've been trying to kinda get across in the previous posts, this release is gonna take a sec for me to get fully out but I expected this one to be a bit wonky with the move.

It's gonna go filesets today, then the build-guides (as I haven't had the time to make them yet xD) and possibly t...

[April Release] EclipseFrame TEOTH_ver.

EDIT: 4.8.23:  All of the supported files for TEOTH are up on CG&T~ As always files are pre-supported by Atlas3DSS. I won't be able to do any actual printing for a bit while I wait on some desks to get in, but everything should be fine, I've test printed most of the pieces of this set pr...

Moving stuff~

Hey everybody I just wanted to give you guys a heads up about the TEOTH release. I know I've been mentioning it here for a bit but, over the next few days my priorities are mostly going to be organizing/packing. I'll be doing some light modeling in between, but I probably won't be adding much mor...

April_Work in Progress 4

Mostly finished with the Eclipse Side off things so I've been working through weapon alts and a few fun bits~ I've still got more that I want to do for this kit before I wrap it up.
And a lot of test printing this time around because I can support small things pretty easily my self~

Just another Work in Progress image set, most of the Eclipse half of TEOTH has been wrapped up. I'm working through the alt base undermount weapons currently, and we'll see where that goes~

Just another quick WIP set as I work through the base frame~

And to touch on what I'm planning to be a full range of smaller weapons systems for her: The current plan in my head is to make TEOTH to have a scaling that's directly proportional to the koi.

And what I mean by that is tak...

First work in progress set of the month~

So seeing as Eclipse was both the first model kit I ever did, and conceivably will be the last main kit in the fishmech set, I've decided the only appropriate name for this kit is: "Total Eclipse of the Heart."

VoidCraft Teaser #2

July will be here sooner then anyone thinks. Least of all for me.

Just another quick teaser for the base frame~ I've worked through most of the base VoidFrame, which will be basically the foundation of what I'm going to work off of and how things are going to go aesthetically~

[Mar. Release] PufferFish Aerial Assault Drone (and PunchBot)

EDIT 3/3/21: All the files are currently making their way to CG&T~ both Raw and Supported this time around~ I've added my test prints to the end of the usual renders, and what is conceivably, the first mini of mine I've actually fully painted x'D It only took me3 years xD

CG&T ownership change:

So a handful of folks have seen the news, regarding CG&T's digital side of things changing hands. To my understanding, this shouldn't really impact the way things are integrated into patreon or downloaded. But it does definitely give the platform as a whole some of the TLC web dev to shine th...

Just wanted to get another WIP image set up for the PufferFish.

Anyway, I've been working through the PufferFish, a l...

[Feb. Release] Corydora StrikeTeam/Reinforcements

EDIT: I could have swore I updated this, all the files are up on CG&t and I've tested the presupports. Some of the pieces in this kit requires a bit more care to de support, but that's pretty usual I think for the infantry stuff~ I'll add some pics to the end of this~

While we're still a ways off from this being an actual release (Mid 2023) I've been working on this in the BG for a bit now, tweaking, refining and just kinda puttering with the forms for the base VoidFrame. I even painted some test prints xD

Been working through the main gun platform~ And I've been working on the poses today. Like the smaller drones, these don't have a whole lot of variance, but there's some there.

Worked through the rest of the poses for the goodbois, and I started working on the one of the two heavy weapons for the Corydora strike team.

[January Release] Corydora Scouting Frame



Edit: 1.7.23: Pre-Supported files for the CoryDora should be up now on CG&T~(there was also a miss-save in the gubbins folder with the tri-tail pistol piece being the lowly single barrel format, but that was fixed in this upload~)

Making another Work in progress post as I've wrapped up the base model~ I even actually painted one of the test prints (still need to paint a head but those tests just came out of the vat, and I guess the lenses need paint too..) which fills my quota for the next 2-3 years x'D
