Speaking of special moves, all characters have an aerial and grounded special move, which allows for some nice variety. Mech Ant for example has a gun and is not afraid to use it. Each one still costs you some health to use but they are great emergency buttons if you're surrounded!

Been working on this guy a bit lately. Learning a lot about Blender with this project.

Hoping to eventually get it 3D printed as a tabletop mini.

Okay, actual footage. Tons more anims for Ant Mech too. A Stage Entry, 2 types of jumps, landings, a walk cycle, and other unimplemented stuff like dashing, running, air attacks, etc. Also reimplemented the Blender shaders and threw together a test environment. CC @mechanicalblue.bsky.social

Loving it! Making me so nostalgic for some N64 era games.

Okay, going for more of a "beat em up" styled animation set. Whipped up an Idle animation and a basic attack chain. I think the most interesting attack is the final strike, where the gun gets flipped ( #b3d #blender3d )

As a sneak preview, here's a test animation I did earlier while I was stress testing the rig a bit. If you look real close you can even see the finger pulling the trigger for a frame or two! (CC @mechanicalblue.bsky.social LOOK IT MOVES!)

More progress. Our ant soldier buddy is more or less fully modeled out with hands and a head and everything. Next up, a gun, then decals, then a nice rig And then I can ✨animate✨, which is my favorite part! Still just matcaps and vertex color shading so far

A mechanical ant soldier in a german-styled spiked soldier's helmet. He's got a pink visor under his helmet, behind his giant mandibles.

One of the nicest pairs of lowpoly hands I have ever modeled.

The ritual to summon her spirit requires 12 priest to be dosed with heavy amounts of amphetamines and hallucinogens and pray in a deep trance for 72 hours. Once she is contained in the sarcophagus, it's loaded into the mech, and then dropped on a target like a weapon of mass destruction.

I had some lore about this suit. It's piloted by the angriest person to ever live: A nun who died a few hundred years ago. She went mad and murdered the rest of her convent after having a divine revelation that god was in fact real, but completely indifferent to human suffering.
