The PrintABlok:Beasts kickstarter finished successfully in May 2021. This post mortem was written up right after it so the lessons of that kickstarter could be remembered. The models are modeled, tested, packaged up, delivered, repaired again, repackaged up, and finally delivered to all the backers. The post-kickstarter listings are in the shop. http://printablok.com has been redirected back to those listings. …
I am not an orginized person – a PrintABloks rant
I’ve got a bit of a confession. When it comes to keeping PrintABloks organized I am totally making it up as I go. Back with the Mechs kickstarter, I started a separate Blender file as a “Check out all that you get” render. Then, just before the Beasts kickstarter I came up with the idea of making “plates” of PrintABlok …

#Chibimals kickstarter post mortem
Note: All of this was written at the end of the Chibimal’s Kickstarter. However, I planned on making it public before the first PrintABlok:Mechs kickstarter… and forgot. Now I’m writing the post mortem for PrintABlok:Beasts kickstarter and realized I should have made this live back then… so I’m making it live now. My 4th kickstarter, Chibimals, successfully raised over $5000 …

Begin the Countdown to PrintABlok – T-minus 5 days
PrintABlok is officially in go time. On Monday Feburary 10th I’ll be livestreaming on YouTube and flipping the switch on the kickstarter, and for the next 30 days after that I’ll be very little more than modeling bloks and mech accessories. I wish I had more to day about it than that. But I’m gonna leave it here and say, …
Chibimal Farm Pack afterthoughts
Buy in the store The Chibimal Farm Pack is finally finished. When I started working on this farm pack I thought it would be simple. A few set pieces, a few more Chibimals, throw in the ones from the Kickstart that match, and wham-bam, I’ve got a new product in the store. But I could not have more wrong about …
#LowPolyDinos Kickstarter Post-Mortem
A bit about this post. Some of it was written immediately after the Low Poly Dino kickstarter. But I decided not to release it then, waiting until I was ready to start again. It sat for a year before I went back to review and edit it a little in preparation for my second 3D modeling kickstarter. So this is …
