The terrain theme for the next campaign is WASTELANDS, and that means sunken ships, oil pumps, and a range of rocks and shanties - starting from the broken ship, to catch people's eyes!
Stay tuned for early January! :3

The Opulence Class prototype has been printed - a few things to fix, supports missing, but woah, it's a beast!
More to come for Overdrive, my upcoming spaceship game planned for 2026!

So close.... yet so far from finished.
Engine still to do, then I have to split it in parts and add modular options - the final kit is gonna have so many cool parts!

Truly a blast from the past, I've resculpted most of the Tech mechs for the upcoming solo mode of FSD!
Stay tuned, a campaign will appear soon!

The second rig to get a "heroic" alternate skin is the Beluga - and with that, the Corairs faction is complete!

I love the design, and given how many people are still buying that army, it's worth a bit of resculpting!

In-hand photos of the new Reclaimed units, the Vanguard and the Shepherd! Both "eccentric" AI cores, which is shown by the extra silliness of their designs.
Very happy with both, not gonna lie.

There it is, look at it! The crabbiest tank that ever tanked like a crab!
I'm so hyped for this, I can't even put it to words.

For those that missed the news last week,
we have partnered up with model kit maker Bellfine to bring you TANKHEAD Plastic Model Kits!
Here are some photos from the All Japan Model & Hobby Show this past weekend, taken from various toy news outlets.

Sculpting these was particularly fun. For objective markers I probably overdelivered, but I was working with some excellent concept art and I really wanted to make something unique. Yay!

Aaaand a nice "public library" or some government building to put some style in the middle of all that brutalism!

First print of the stranded boat. Quite an impressive result, for what I'm concerned.

This is by far the most influential piece of art for me this year.
@thelazyforger.bsky.social and I had a lot of fun with this design figuring out how to incorporate the industrial cargo and modular military features.

Yes. This. 100%.
I can't be bothered to hear your "that's what sells" argument. I'm sure (well, not really, but i can guess) that m3th sells, doesn't mean you should go out dealing.

I don't think these guys left GW with any real choice. Also, if you're running a multi-person business built on unlicensed merch from big-name IP, you are not "a fan project."
You are the reason copyright cases keep happening that make it harder to have fan projects.

I'll walk through the basics with you, and give you my reaction to what the YouTubers are doing, and what GW is doing. Along with a lawyer's perspective on why each side is where they are.
IOW I finally get to bring both my PhD and practice experience into a stream.

Haven't done pencil concept sketches in a while, but it's OH SO FUN.
Also a great way to get your creative juices flowing. More on the blog post below.

A little crate to warm up between small-scale sculpts.
I didn't have to glue it to my finger, this time.

Just released Overdrive 0.5 to the alpha testers. It's becoming a pretty smooth game system, I'm excited for what's to come!

The railing-walkway project might have developed QUITE A BIT. At this point it has modular joints, magnetic sockets for bridges, and enough parts to start to be pretty cool.
next up - light posts, terminals, cables, and more!

Did you all check out the City Ruin files recently? Last week I uploaded the L-Sections, finally you can do corner buildings!
