All Block-outs completed for Gens 1-3. What's next?
🕑 Added 2023-03-07 14:06:35 +0000 UTCWe've reached the end of Phase 1 for the Armored Core project. All the Block-outs are completed, so what does this mean? What's next?
With the Block-outs completed, we will be moving onto a few things for Phase 2 which will include:
1. Final scaling and proportion passes on all parts.*
2. Joint designs for full articulation**
3. Print-ready High Detail Pass.***
*This is necessary to ensure all parts work together cohesively, and all weapons can be equipped on all Arms and Cores without issue since there are myriad scales to consider.
**I will be designing exclusive joint systems for the project specifically so there is no need to purchase, or rely on 3rd party vendors for necessary goods. It's important to me that everyone who acquires a To Hardware kit will have everything necessary to make their AC straight from their printer.
***This is the very last step in Phase 2, which is a full rework of every Block-out that has been featured here to be of the highest quality I can personally muster.
More information will be released when it has been finalized. I know many of you are wondering what the scale of the models will be when printed, and I'm personally aiming for 10-12 inches (25-30cm) tall. But this is completely and utterly dependent on the strength of both the resin that's used, as well as the Joint system.
We're getting close. Thank you all for your support. It means the world.
