Looking forward to a productive 2023~
🕑 Added 2023-01-01 00:51:43 +0000 UTCThis is the one post a year I get to be sappy and emotional for at least a lil' bit x'D 2022's over and what an absolute year it has been. Now, I know I kinda stopped reiterating it in the monthly posts, but I really really have to say how stupidly thankful I am to you all. Gonna ramble. This project wouldn't be half of what it is I don't think without you folks, I love getting on my computer and being just absolutely jazzed when I see people posting fresh prints, WIPs, or finished mechs in the discord, and while I might not react to all of them I see all of them~ Speaking of the discord, and this patreon page, I am also just absolutely floored by the community that's grown from this project, from helping new people just starting out, to giving painting and modeling advice, list crafting and the like, to just, posting memes and chatting with me while I'm modeling xD and that that same community has, for the most part, stuck with me through complete iterative stylistic growth, and for good or worse (depending on who you ask) this project has absolutely grown from where I started, as pretty evident from the above render. (I think it's a good thing but I'm terribly biased~)
With that said, I just, want to thank you all again, while I might be a decent mecha modeler, you all are an absolutely fantastic community, and I hope you continue to stick around and have excitement for the things to come.
Happy New Year~
Betcha thought this post was done, but we haven't even talked about things to come x'D For the coming month (February) I'm going to be working on an add-on kit that will have a whole bunch of flavorful tactical bits/gubbins for the corydoras to make a pretty unique scouting team, as well as some good scouting drones and a weapons platform drone to go along with them. It should really flesh out everything you can do with them~
Then following that I'm gonna be making another small flyer, (possibly with additional bits to rep an alt stonefish, but that depends on how involved the main kit is)
And then I might make a big brick party bus, but I'm not sure on that one yet. A few OC Mechs I want to make (alts for the Koi frame most likely scale wise) And wrapping everything up with the one that kinda started it all, and doing a full remodel of Eclipse.
(everything above is subject to change and I might add or move things around depending)
And then it's the VoidCrafted~
(Not that I'm going to stop making or iterating on these mech, but they won't be the focus.)
Once again, Happy New Years~

Maybe we need an xv-46 sized suit so we can have an authentic boarding action suit.

Felt the need to sign up to your patreon again. “How much is that doggy in the discord, the one with the waggy tail?” ^^

Last year had a lot of great minis, and I'm looking forward to the next one. I'm looking forward to the Voidcrafted, but when I read the initial announcement a while back I though you were talking about another kind of ancient robots called wraiths. I'd love to see your take on them as well. Also, a random idea I had for the Koi and possibly some other sets. What about parts for underwater movement? Small manoeuvring nozzles, propeller or hydrojet pods to replace legs, that sort of thing? Also, pincers and other, more mechanical looking hand replacements that could also be melee weapons would be neat.

I've been wondering lately what your plan was once this line was more or less "complete". The VoidCrafted sound really interesting; any plans to cover any Aspects of the army outside of traditional Constructs? Looking beyond that, I happen to think you'd be able to design a pretty sweet swarm of mechanical creepy-crawlies.

Happy new year, and many happy returns! Looking forward to your future projects, especially the eventual Voidcrafted!

Thank you for everything you do, Piper! I haven’t been here from the beginning, but I haven’t left once I did find this little pocket universe of yours. And I wasn’t much of a fish xeno fan. Your work made me one! Your work has definitely grown in many ways, all of which are good. I very much look forward to what you have in store for us all!

Happy New Year! You deserve the support everyone gives you! I’m looking forward to a new year of mechs, but I’m REALLY looking forward to the Voidcrafted! I’m too picky about that sort of thing, but I’m certain you’ll delight and surprise!
