Been a little bit since my last post.

Have another digibash. This time we have the g2 cyberjet Strafe using the siege seeker mold. I'm still really pleased with how well the green matches here, matching body colors to head colors is often fairly difficult.

Here's a slightly more recent digibash, Shattered Glass Armada!Megatron. I didn't want to go with the g1 sg colors for this one, and didn't want to do just regular Optimus colors, so instead I chose the colors of the Battle for the Matrix Armada Optimus toy. I'm quite pleased with how it came out, and every time I look at it I end up wanting to do more sg armada lol

No credits on this post because the photos are mine this time lol

The mighty Thode returns, because I can't be bothered to finish any other bionicle projects yet (got plenty in the works though).

This one is actually based off an older photo that Bob took back in the good old days. Just wanted to try a re"draw" (is there a term for that in 3d stuff? Or do we just co-opt the redraw term?). You can see that image down below the credits!

Also, I added separate glowing eyes to the model. Going to be experimenting with those to give some expression to the normally-static bionicle models.

I've forgotten to post two nights in a row now, so how about some more gunpla? Yeah, that makes sense. Don't worry, I'll probably post another bionicle render tomorrow night.

This was actually my first gunpla kit (second model kit). My good pal @redastrayzero is a fan of (you'll never guess) Astray Red Frame, so when I spotted Astray Red Frame Inversion in the store it was an easy grab.

Also one digibash into an Astray Purple Frame Inversion, just because. I like how it came out so I might do more.

I made a Redbubble, so uh yeah

And feel free to suggest anything else to put up

In the spirit of putting out a little bit of everything in my backlog, here's a photoset of two gunpla kits: High Grade Z'gok and Char's Z'gok. At the time of photographing these were just out-of-box builds. I've panel-lined them since, but still need to take photos.

I love this suit and I love this kit (these kits?). So much fun to pose, and they have a surprising amount of stability! I'd really like to get more of them honestly.

In other news, I got another bionicle render done tonight, so I'll be posting that within the next few days (I haven't blocked out an actual schedule yet for what content types get posted when).

I figured for my first digibash upload on this blog I should kick it all the way back to my very first digibash all the way back from 2019.

This is Siege Shockwave converted into Six Shot from Transformers: Energon. Comes in two varieties, one with regular silver and one where the silver is darkened. These digibashes are pretty simple and straightforward, but hey, they were my first. Still like how they came out.

Later on I would realize I don't need to do this many images for one digibash project, so expect less going forward lol.

Thode has an unexpected encounter with the local wildlife of Bota Magna.

Bionicle 5 was gonna have dinos on Bota Magna. Ideal timeline.

I've got a ton of backlog to post on here, but this isn't one of them.

I finished rigging Thode a couple of nights ago, so naturally I had to stick him in a desert and give him a sniper rifle.
