Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 07/06/2026A mass exodus of staff, head admin running to the hills so he doesn't have to deal with the mess he made, Owner no where to be seen, all because they chose a transphobe over the rest of their staff.

Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 27/05/2026I think I need to make another one that’s just a stock E1x in like umber brown or southern green if I do that. Just so I’m not solely catering to Thomas fans 110

Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 27/05/2026I’m considering distributing the stl files for the E1x shells. Idk what form it would take atm or price, but if there’s enough interest I’ll do it. 131
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 24/05/2026"For an elegant touch" Uh huh, sure. you made them weird rhombuses instead of trapazoids. very different, very distinct. So distinct I literally didn't notice the difference from the other 'new' renders until I saw this post. 000

Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 18/05/2026yes, it is a vrc group. However, it is a vrc group that has built a following off of stolen work and ideas. Hell, the group itself is a shallow copy of VR Dalek. I would know, I was on the HQ staff. Art theft is something rather serious, and just because it's in a game doesn't change that 100
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 18/05/2026You created a bluesky account 8 minutes ago and the first thing you come to is this obscure post to defend people stealing art... interesting 100
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Brother, I’ve been modeling Daleks for 5 years. There’s an infinite amount of ways to remix and rework design elements and stay original looking. Using the “all Daleks look the same” argument is incredibly reductive and insulting to all the creative and talented Dalek modelers out there. 000
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 16/05/2026You putting the orthos from ordinals model next to this one is not helping your case my guy. You’re right, the exact details are slightly different. But put this model and prydonians side by side and they look 90% the same 000
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Again, there’s a difference between “inspired by” and just taking something. The neck, dome, shoulders and eye are practical identical to the PD’s model. There are ways of adapting design elements without lifting them wholesale from someone else’s work 100
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 16/05/2026So here’s a thought: If someone took this model, changed the domelights and colors then claimed they created the whole thing, wouldn’t you be upset? That’s basically what you’ve done here. Just crediting someone is not an excuse to copy their work while claiming it’s your own thing. 100
Squid1562 @squid1562.bsky.social · 15/05/2026There is something to be said about the differences between being "inspired by" and blatantly ripping something off. Like you can't make this stuff up. No permission was asked, just yoinked and "It's my own original character Blonic". Pick up the pencil and design something yourselves. 410
