First kits of the month are coming in... but enough about that. We gotta talk about giant robots.

With more to come VERY soon.
We'll have a full part one release imminently.
But right at this moment, we need to talk about giant robots and dreadnought builds.
So, when we build a kit, we have to be quite choosy about what we pick to work on. 3 kits a month, 30 days a month, means ten days on average (discounting weekends) to go from idea to printed painted model. Sometimes that means prioritizing some weapon and kit options over others.
And whooooooooooooooo boy is that true here. I honestly did not know there were just so many weapon options of our favorite contemptable machines across 30-40, OPR, and the panoptica.
So, we're going to need a part 2 for this one. More bodies, heads, shoulder rockets and... well that part's up to you. Please reply with your favorite dread builds and weapons that I missed. They can be from any wargaming system. Also post your helmet requests, as well as any weird bits you'd like to see. While I won't do copies, I'll see what I can do with each request :)

For weapons not related to any wargaming system, I love me a big mortar that mounts on the shoulder, and can't be pointed lower than 45 degrees. Something that makes a big "kathoonk" sound when it fires. Also a big fan of "tuning fork" style weapons that have two long beams and a space in between where the glowies come out. Double points if there's a "stowed" version of this gun where the beams are held together (armored core vibes here). For helmets, always a big fan of a flatish, blank faceplate with a bezel; something that evokes a screen that an intrepid painter could freehand a face on. (also sorry about the comment spam, my brain rejects "shift + enter" as a concept.)
