2 Month Loyalty Reward!

2 Month Loyalty Reward!

Here comes the Droidkyn Machine's Vengeance! This bad machine is a thank you for those of you who have been subscribed for 2 or more months. Those months do not need to be consecutive on Patreon for PWG to pick it up. Just ANY 2 months since I first started the Patreon!


The Loyalty Reward will be the ONLY way to snag this mini! It will not be added to the store at any point. View Post

Loyalty Reward Inbound!

Loyalty Reward Inbound!

A new challenger approaches!

The first Loyalty Reward will be arriving later today. This will be for subscribers who have been subscribed for 3 months (consecutive or non-consecutive). This will be the ONLY way to snag this awesome model! It will NOT be available in the store once released.

I couldn't just give away what was coming just yet, so here's a preview.

October Part 1

October Part 1

October Part 1 is now available!

This is a reworked and combined kit of the Droidkyn Dragoons and Droidkyn Killteam. There were a few things that needed fixed and rethought from the original kits. I fixed some tolerances of the arm and shoulder sockets, backpack sockets, and proportions of some of the special weapons. I also completely reposed the arms on all of the weapons except the one...

Small update

So, also working on updating and applying some fixes to the Dragoon/Killteam sets. Going to consolidate both into a single kit. Those of you who already received them during a month you were subscribed, it’ll be in your downloads/library.


It’ll probably be uploaded here in the first few days of October, so October subs will get it as well.


I’ll have bet...

Ghostkeel WIP

A little preview for the "Ghostkeel". A bunch I need to rework and replace on this. But a good blockout so far. Hands, feet, and shoulderpads are placeholders.

Droidkyn Wardens are finished!

Droidkyn Wardens are finished!

The Droidkyn Wardens are now finished, supported, and uploaded! Available to download through MMF and PWG. 


I made sure to give enough parts to cover the entirety of the wargear options. I know I said it for the Killteam, but I think this is the best kit I've made yet. I incorporated a few new modeling tricks into the making of this kit and I think it definitely upped the ...

Future Plans

So after giving it quite a bit of thought and planning a few things out, I will be continuing the Patreon/Tribe for the foreseeable future! 


A big boost this month helped with how I was feeling with things. I believe this was due to the video from Once In A Six Side where he printed and painted some models from myself, Pipermakes, and Riverside Minis. A HUGE thank you to h...

August Info

I want to go ahead and make this announcement now.


There will not be a “new” release for August. I will, however, be releasing a “starter kit” of the Hive Droids. It’ll be at least 4 kits.


I’ve been doing a lot of thinking over the past 2 months on if I can continue making this a viable income source. It’s VERY VERY borderline right now. With Au...

Back at it!

Back at it!

Just a little update on the Droidkyn Wardens. Still a bit to go, but finally starting to bulk out a bit!

Also, the missing regular backpack was uploaded to the Droidkyn Killteam.

Droidkyn Killteam

Droidkyn Killteam

The Droidkyn Killteam is now uploaded and available to download!


This is quite a large kit, 61 parts in total, all of which are compatible with the Droidkyn Dragoon kit released earlier this year. The Dragoon kit will be getting a slight update to a few of the parts, mainly on the keying of the leg to torso, and some slight modification to the fitting...

Droidkyn Killteam update

Good news! The Droidkyn Killteam should be uploaded late tonight (unsupported), with the supported files to follow shortly after. Super late in the month, but still hitting it.

I'll also be modifying the original Dragoon torsos so that they will fit the new keying for the Killteam legs, which means even more cross-compatibility between the Dragoon kit and the Killteam!

April WIP

Little bit of a progress update for the Droidkyn Rovers. Got the main forms shaped in, now for the next level of parts and then I can begin detailing them. I will try to figure out a magnet ready solution once I get the heavy weapons positions figured out.

Getting some good progress done for the (NAME TBA) vertically challenged droids. Been down sick all day, so I only managed to get the feet worked up today. Tomorrow is a small local event, then afterwards I'll be working on the hands and heads.

February Dockguard WIP

February Dockguard WIP

Really loving how this is bulking up. I'm adding some details that I felt the Corsair Hands were missing, mainly the armor 'separation' cuts here and there. The melee weapons for them are complete, but I still need to finish up the shield and rework the pistols a bit as they were too small from the Corsair Hands kit.

Early Ghostkeel WIP

Early Ghostkeel WIP

First WIP of the Ghostkeel. Its right arm will have the main guns mounted at the elbow like the OG model. Left arm will be a 'handy'. The top "head" part will be reworked into the more spherical look of the concept, and the waist is just a placeholder for now. Feet and Lower legs will be tweaked into new parts as well.

Update for moving forward

     Hey everyone . As you know, I'm a bit behind on releases. The past couple months have been a bit heavy in terms of my mental health. This has caused a pile up of kits to make, and not enough headway being made. As of right now, we have the ghostkeel, riptide, Corsairs transport, broadside, and krootox still to be made.
