October Update - Monthly Round Up
🕑 Added 2020-10-01 08:05:01 +0000 UTCIt's October! That means Halloween! My absolute favourite time of the year and that means a Halloween theme as a bonus option to Shryka this month.
Painting Competition - Still going on!
My painting competition is still happening and is open to everyone. Already got some entries and donations. We're up to £105 in donations so far. Let's see if we can get further than that.
Details can be found in this post!
September Content - Now Expired
Mortaya was a super fun sculpt. Despite headaches and issues along the way I was happy with the result, and adding lightsabers was also a lot of fun! Of course, those lightsaber options were Patreon exclusive so they won't be available in STL form again.
LINKS TO SEPTEMBER CONTENT ARE NOW INVALID - NEW ONES FOR OCTOBER WILL BE POSTED ON THE 3RD OCTOBER.
Poll Winner - Magdalena, Death's Seeker
Magdalena, Death's Seeker has won the poll meaning I get to finish the trio of Scythebearer sisters. I will be sculpting Magdalena throughout October and releasing her in November. Hopefully should be streaming more this month so be sure to tune in on Twitch.
Model of the Month - Shryka, Death's Spell Weaver
After Mortaya was received so well this month I'm happy to present her sister, Death's Spell Weaver, Shryka. She is entirely finished and will be available to Hero tiers and above from October 3rd. Oh and it's Halloween at the end of the month so of course I had to include some options.
• 1:10 scale model of Shryka, Death's Spell Weaver featuring:
• 3 head options - Standard with hair, bald, and Halloween special.
• Additional Flame option - Halloween themed palm flame.
• Magnet Wells - 6x3mm and 4x2mm round magnet wells added to all parts of the model capable of supporting them.
• SFW and NSFW - As usual SFW and NSFW versions are included along with combined, multipart, and pre-supported files for every single piece.
A note about the combined versions: Over the last few months I have began adding more options to my models and as a result I can no longer create combined versions for every permutation of the model. The logistics, management and storage of several dozen combinations is impractical and unfeasible for me to continue supporting. As a result the combined versions from this point on will be the "canon" version (in SFW and NSFW) as depicted in the original concept art.
• 4 Sword Options - Two types of sword: curved or straight blade. And the same again but on fire.
•1:10 scale bust versions with the same options as above with additional simple and special stand options.
• 1:1 Scale Charms - Shryka has multiple charms about her person, these are two life size charms.
• 1:1 Lifesize Weaver Swords - Forged from a slither of Death's own scythe, Shryka can channel her power through the wickedly sharp blade, amplifying her strength.
• Texture swatch - Featuring the most prominent textures across the models to allow you to practice before committing to the model.
• A Random Pumpkin! - Why? Why not? Happy Halloween!
Extra Bonus: smaller scale print.
For the first time, and thanks to my partner, I can provide pre-supported files at 70% scale (roughly 1:14 or 1:16 if you measure to the eyes, around 130mm tall) for those who may be intimidated by the 1:10 scale.
I am only including the pre-supported files for the 1:14 scale version as you can just reduce parts and combined files to 70% easily.
As with all pre-supported files, they have been test printed on a Phrozen Shuffle using Ameralabs AMD3 Black resin with an exposure time of 3s with a layer height of 30um and were printed successfully. I cannot guarantee success on your own set up of resin, printer and environmental combinations.
New Delivery Method via Itch.io
This month I will be testing a new release method by making use of Itch.io. The reason behind this is to make it easier for you guys to get access to your files should you ever lose them or need to download them again. Itch.io integrates with Patreon and after registering and connecting your Patreon account, you can claim your Patreon rewards. After this is done it will be permanently added to your Itch.io library. So if you forget to download your files, or lose them due to hardware failure, you can easily retrieve them without having to message me and wait for me to re-upload files and share them that way. If you entirely forget to claim the reward I can just issue you with a key to claim it rather than spend a few hours uploading files again.
As a bonus it is also more secure and not bandwidth limited and files can be updated down the line if I should ever make any changes.
I will be releasing The Trove and Renders separate projects to the monthly releases so everyone can maintain access to them.
Finger crossed it will go smoothly. It seemed to work well when testing it with folks on the Discord server so I imagine it will work out. If not I will default back to the previous solution.
New Merchandise
I've added a new t-shirt design to the store. A Gambit of Guns comes in orange, black, and white designs on t-shirts of multiple colours and sizes.
Usual Content
Usual content will also be available on October 3rd (or earlier depending on the billing completion). Renders, poll sketches and Work In Progress Shots will be available through the Itch.io releases.
