August Work in Progress 3
🕑 Added 2022-07-27 00:57:44 +0000 UTCProbably the last WIP render set for Augusts GhostShrimp poppers.
(added a render with a side-by-side of a standard goby for scale)
The current bits spread is lacking a few normal heads, and a few other gubbins I want to add in. I'm also going to be doing 3-4 ish full figures that will be going through some kind of cloaking transition that I think it's going to hopefully be pretty rad (3-4ish figures in 2 and 4 arm configs per set so something like 6-8 stealthy figures).
In the Bit spread you can see a few things with how I set this kit up, there are 3 types of generic posed arm, one with a fists, one with open hands, and one that's socketed like the larger kits for the cooler less used hands. This keeps me from needing to do something like 8-9 sets of arms. Same thing with the weapon arms. Please note that the guns aren't slotted, and the lower arm is joined to the weapon. No magnets in this kit this time, same as the original SilverFish, and the shoulder mounted weapons will only work in a 2 arm config. A bit more limiting by comparison to some of my other mech, but still quite good I think~
And with the previous smaller figures that have a lot of pre-posed pieces I'll have an un-joined T-Pose model included for anyone that wants to edit it in something like blender to come up with their own poses.
I am however running later then I wanted to with this kit set, and I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to get into the Eclipse pieces, but I'm thinking I'm not sure about using this as a base for it anyway, so I'm not crushed about it. I want to really put some design effort into that one so rushing it would feel bad. (On the eclipse note, I will be making a loyalty tier for the Christmas eclipse model as a lot of people were sad about missing it, understandably as it had a very short release window. It's probably going to be for anyone at or over 3 months~)

Hot damn, you continue to astound and delight.

I think the brown, humanoid head is too distinctly space monk for my use (I use these for cyberpunk), so I was wishing thereβd be more head options... then I noticed there were FIFTEEN of the style I liked! Iβm good. π

This is a fantastically solid release, yet again!

They look awesome, as usual, and I especially love the little turtle drones!

Oh mylanta these are gorgeous. I love the originals, but these ones are *chef kiss*. I'm particularly fond of the one in the back with the wicked cool head option. Excellent work as always. I'll be printing these in clear resin and doing like a waist/torso paint job to make it going camo mode.

These are all rendered on 32mm bases, so they're a bit larger then a standard goby~ I should add a render of that.. (added that render to the set)

So how do these compare in scale to the Goby?
