[June Release] CuttleGeist SpecOps Frame

[Edit 6.6.23 PrePlates for the Geist are up on CG&T and that's a wrap~
~Pipes]

What was originally planned to just be a shoulder update like with the Sturgeon Frame turned into what was basically a complete remodel of the original AnglerGeist frame. Sometimes that's just what happens when you open up a model from 2021 and you're hit with "Wow some of that's just...could be better..."

I wanted to keep elements of the original Geist and silverfish in the design while bringing things closer to what the line has become. This is kinda an aesthetic culmination of the work that I've done up to this point, and if I had to end the main kits on what I consider a decent note for the FishMech, I'm glad this is that kit~

I implemented the same heavier undermount slot from the SturgeonV2 and if you scale the CuttleGeist's two main weapons up by 1.144 they should fit the Sturgeon.
And vice versa if you scale the SturgeonV2's down by .874 they should fit the Geist (I'll need to actually test print this though to confirm)
Then there's the standard Undermount slots on both Socket joints and the typical underarm mounts, compatible with most standard undermount weapons~

Overall I'm really pleased with this one and I'm looking forward to seeing what gets done with it once the filesets are out there~
And for anyone interested, I streamed most of the build on my Twitch, with the VoDs going up on this youtube channel, for anyone that wants to see some of the process~

As always raw files will be released around the 3rd or 4th of the month, with the supports from Atlas following as I get them back and tested. Hades has a thing going on this month, but it shouldn't impact this release~

And lastly for those wondering "Where are the stealth cubes?" They're coming. I didn't have the time to get to them this month, so I'm gonna roll them into the add on set I'll be doing for July. I will say that the Cube effects will be for what will be a mostly a pre-posed version of the CuttleGeist as it's not really viable to do these as stand alone modular pieces.

Anyway, next month I'm gonna be doing a big add on set for the fishmech line, and then It's all VoidCrafted from there~

Oooh gorgeous new cuttlegeist just in time for the index to super charge the stealthiest of walkers, great timing!

Sean Pickersgill

New to the Patreon but holy crap, loving the stuff I've seen and kicking myself I've not found it previously! Just need to work on getting the back catalogue now. =D

Andy Betony

Thank you so much! Basically looking for mechs that can more easily fit on a 1"/25mm hex base with minimal scaling. "Size 1" mechs for Lancer RPG :)

GrilledCheese28

Infantry scaled stuff specifically would be any of the Goby kits, or the Corydora kits~ and I think the Odonata would fall into that as well~

Poyper

New member, absolutely love your work! What are the names of the infantry sets (the posed ones)...I am only familiar with the Silverfish so far.

GrilledCheese28

They're up now~ ~Pipes

Poyper

I love every model you make, I try to print them all , but I think at some point I'm going to stop because I already can't keep up with the quantity of awesome stuff you're doing.

Baphomatth

Unfortunately, outside of the infantry scaled models, and a few of the heavier 2 handed weapons, I don't have any intent to do pre-posed sets.

Poyper

I have been working on trying to print these and there are a lot of pieces. For posing, this is awesome, but I was wondering, have you considered adding a pre-posed model with just the body or arms? I love the poses you have for the sample models, but clumsy me, may never get them looking like that. :)

Sytar

I'm so fucking hype for this release. Any update on the plates?

A S

Not even kitbash, you have models for everything excluding the biggest monsters. I checked =D (violent roster writing noises)

Lubomír Bednář

It depends~ there's definitely enough to kitbash most anything, but if someone really cool comes up that I have to make a model for, inspiration is inspiration~

Poyper

I'm amazed and impressed how you see your models through in terms of LTS. What do you recon will happen if/when they release new models? Will you pursue the Voidcrafts till completion like the Fishmech or can we look forward to updates on our beloved denizens of the deep?

Lubomír Bednář

Gotta say, this looks great. Loving the options on the torso/head. I'm also EXTREMELY excited for July's Voidcraft stuff. Thanks for all the hard work Pipes. :)

Serosaken

Really looking forward to the whole Voidcrafted array!

Eric Griffith

It looks great! I love all your models. Can't wait for the future!

Gundamdad

These are great. I'll be bummed when you move away from the fishmech line. The concept for the VoidCrafted seems cool, but it just doesn't speak to me the same way.

Kylie Bunce

Love those new weapons. I never felt like the original Geist's weapons looked like they needed 2 hands. These ones have that chonky heft I crave.

Michael Shanahan

Yeah the past few kits have really given me my own case of "How many of these do I actually want to print..." x'D

Poyper

I think this is my favorite one yet.

Noah Ward

Holy shit these arm dope. I want to now figure out how to make it look like a heavy weight mech.

AVKamfher

The old Geist looked good but was never up my alley. This one, however, is so hot I will have to print several different versions of it! So excited!

DeMante

Your designs are beautiful as always 😊
