Pausing billing for April + Model Gallery + a few updates
🕑 Added 2023-03-07 15:08:42 +0000 UTCHello everyone! So a few updates.
First of all, I'll be pausing billing for April so I can take a short breather, catch up on some games+anime, and sculpt totally random personal projects that I can fit into releases somewhere down the line. Some examples of random passion projects that you'll get in a Patreon release at some point:
I'll also be watching Obscurities in Miniature, a Youtube channel that shows off cool niche/obscure minis, figure kits, and paintjobs! My stuff gets featured there every now and again, which is always fun for me to see as well! Check them out at:

Next, I added a gallery in the Welcome Pack (that I'll also be linking in my profile) where you can see all the models I've made for the Patreon thus far, organized by Year and Month. Hope this is a useful/fun thing for you all!

You'll also find in there a text file with a link to a "Living Pokedex" where I will be marking Pokemon I've sculpted as "caught". It makes a cool visualization of all the work that's been done on the Free Pokemon STL Project [name not final], as well as all the work that's left to do!

Besides that, we'll reconvene in May! If you catch up on your printing and painting, be sure to show off your prints and paintjobs in the Discord, I do love seeing all the stuff I haven't got around to painting yet given color and life!

The release line up for the next several months is:
- May - Kingdom Hearts
- June - Dragon Quest
- July - Zelda
- August - Xenoblade
- September - Metal Gear Month #2
Hope you're excited!
Last thing, some people have been having issues with the pre-supports, specifically supports attached to the face/hair of some models. Supports are definitely not my strong suit, so do give me feedback regarding your experiences with the supports. If anything in particular needs a retooling due to facial detail scarring/other issues, be sure to let me know the problem models and I'll do my best to fix them. I hope that as my sculpting gets better, so does my support-sense!
So, let me know how many pre-supported models of mine you've had an issue with, and be sure to leave a comment to specify which one(s) need another pass. Thanks for your help and continued support!

Of the stuff I've printed - (maybe 20% of your work) - I've never had issues with the Pre-supports. I take that back. I've just printed out all of the DBZ models. Horrible around the hair, under armour. Any of those little thin rods to support armour. They are everywhere. You'll get better for sure.
Obscurities in Miniature
I know I've mentioned issues with the little supports on faces, usually on spikey hair, and mainly with removal- Souji's bangs, Clouds spikes, areas like that. It's entirely possible it's a "me" issue though.
