Finalizing the the Wercor kit is cutting a bit into my 4 day buffer I give myself at the beginning of the month. I should have the posts/renders up tomorrow for them. I just have the melee stuff left to pose~ Sorry for the short delay, I didn't think this kit would be this large x'D

I have been plugging away at this kit just adding and adding to it and I wanted to get one more WIP up x'D I've got a few more things left to model out (shields and a couple smaller shoulder pauldrons, and if I'm lucky a few nonsense bits), and then it's just, so much posing.

Finally getting some stuff up on the base (TippyLeg variant) Wercor frame~
Mostly just been working through the base model, And getting all the forms set up for it.
This frames pieces will work with the previous VoidCrafted at a simple 1.25 Upscaling~ (and .8 for the downscale~) Some of the upscaled two held weapon poses might not work 100% with this torso, but all the single arms and the...

This pack is very quickly becoming a similar bits scope to the Vacarsield frame, and I'm glad that next month's Arcus frame doesn't have nearly as many variant pieces x'D
For the floating poses, I'll have a piece of anchoring fabric mounting to the disk piece on the backpacks. As a note, th...

As the title suggests the new tiers are live.
I've gone and renamed things a bit in an attempt to potentially mitigate confusion.
Overseer is now VoidCraft_Releases.
FishMech_ReRuns is the tier for well, fishmech reruns
