Hey! It's that time of the month where I talk a lot of words at everybody about this month and maybe next.
And first I just want to uh...welcome all the new people that have joined up in the past two months this kinda grew a whole lot in a fairly short amount of time. (A little more then 600 and change) and that's kinda wild. Welcome! I'm so very glad you're here and I hope you all enjoy the mecha kits~
And for all the new people, Patreon is kinda buggy for the first few days of the month while it's servers catch up, and CG&T pulls from their servers so if you're having any issues please be a little bit patient while everything settles down again~

Actual announcement things:
We're probably looking at a 3rd of the month release for the Base Goby kit (FireFish and TigerGoby variants) And I've been building little test prints for the past few days and making sure everything prints right. As I mentioned before (on the discord), lychee doesn't like the pre-supported .stl's and I can't recommend repairing them. I've at this point printed everything in this kit, unrepaired with no issues. And I'm real excited to be bringing some infantry to the game. Originally, I was honestly kinda scared of this scale, but I think everything came out really good, and there are tons of options for building. I really hope you enjoy working with this one~

And as some of you've seen in the WIP's I've already started working on some of the WatchmanGoby bits. This variant off of the Goby frame will be centered around recon with some nifty new weapon bits and frame pieces, and I'm gonna *try* to possibly do some cloth simulation on a couple of the preposed pieces. But don't hold your breath on that one, I've never done anything with it yet, and if I don't like it, then I'm gonna bury it in the backyard and never think about it again xD
Now I also mentioned (on the discord) possibly doing shoulder updates to previous suits to bring them in line with how the Commander's shoulders are set up because they're just...that much better then the previous joints in my opinion, and the first kit that I'll be working though alongside the WatchmanGoby is going to be the Koi kit.
And if everything goes well and I've got time to squeeze it in something possibly very punchy.
Now tentatively the month after(April release) the WatchmanGoby is going be the fabled drone builder month. I've touched a bit on this design set with the Guppy's and the Calappa, but I want to solidify things in a unified way across the whole board. and so the plan is to just work on the whole line at once so everything stays consistent. I'm going to try to make it compatible with previous drone mounts (This only currently includes the Cichlid and it's variants) but it's one of those things where I'll actually know when I start it, and this is a bit down the line)
I think that's all I've got for now~ The Goby frame kit will be up on CG&T around the 3rd or 4th as per usual
