The next big step in PrintABlok is coming soon. BattleMecha will enable the creation of awesome humanoid mecha, starting with the Angel Mecha and following that up with… whatever kickstarter backers decide!
But while I’m waiting for Kickstarter to approve that campaign, you can get started building and customizing your own mecha today with the BattleMecha Frame, available at all your favorite repositories for 3D models:
Printables – Thingiverse – Thangs – MyMiniFactory
While the basic frame isn’t very fancy, you can use other PrintABlok sets to customize and make it fancy. I’ve included a couple of ideas in the makes which use only blocks available in the free sets. (Of course if you have access to the premium blocks, imagine much more cool it could be!)
I hope when you try customizing your mecha frame that you’ll share it with a make on your favorite repository.
Contest Incoming
I’m working on a partnership with some sponsors to make prizes available to those who upload makes of the Mecha Frame. I’ll be announcing that soon, but you can start printing and building now to get a leg up on the competition!
