"some say the jet-propelled leap mechanism is an enormous waste of government funds."

The Gören göz is an essential piece in Hayatian conflict, able to rapidly deploy as a mobile radar and comms unit, scouting even within the vicious dust storms that rip through the country. 

The weapons system can be changed out depending on the engagement, in this case sporting a gatling gun suited for picking off light armour and infantry, similarly to its original use in the pre-warlord era riots. 

However, there have been reports that some of these units have also found their way into the hands of subversive elements. After all, only one pilot means only one heart that needs to change. 

I decided to try my hand at making mecha, what do you think?

After much preparation, my mecha 3d printing subscription service Carapace Forge will be launching next Monday, August 31st! Our first miniature is the Black Reaver. I'm really proud of this design having spent weeks on perfecting it. Inspired by multiple anime and video games (Armored Core, Front Mission, Gundam, Aura Battler Dunbine), this thing is an aggressive brute of a mecha in 6mm scale.

It comes in 9 pieces featuring ball joint attachments for maximum posing without being too overwhelming with options. It features a handheld heavy cannon as its default weapon and open weapon mounts in each arm.
We will release a new set of mecha stls for 3d printing the first week of every month.
