    I've been reading through the previous thread, and there's been a whole lot of gems so I'm pretty nervous to present my own stuff. I'm working on a tabletop game set in my own /m/ universe. Basically, the milky way is the last galaxy in the universe after the rest of the universe was devoured by a sapient tide of biomass called the Entity. The dystopian nations of the galaxy all have near godlike technology, but the Entity is still just too strong. They have all pooled their resources together to make Golems, which only superhuman martial artists can pilot without dying. Golems are not just raw, godlike power. A truth hidden from the population is that Golems are utterly supernatural and have a will of their own.
    If you make a pilot and or golem, I'd love to see you post it.

    As for the thread question, I don't think it'd work at all. The Golems are just too dangerous, even just from looking at them.

    the game. i'll be bringing it to kickstarter sometime in march.

    I might take a look at your rules and post my opinion, but there's a LOT of writing here. Formatting is rough but it's Google docs so like, what can you expect. You're probably gonna have to move away from that some time

    i do have plans for some better formatting as I finish up the book, something like this.

    I think you really need to flesh out your game. there's no examples fights/enemies, stuff goes unexplained like radar, and there's just too much placed on the gm's shoulders. the rough background also makes reading the text unpleasant.
    >>
    >>24002748
    >I think you really need to flesh out your game
    Well, it's a one-pager. The point is that the rules are supposed to be simple, unobtrusive, and built on implication and the reader's imagination rather than systems or mechanics. The idea is that in a theoretical print-out of the rules it would be one page that you make into a trifold. It's not supposed to have very many rules or examples, because it's all just supposed to come from your imagination.

    The campaign I'm running does have expanded rulesets for certain things like hexboard combat, expanded mech customization and more in-depth rules for jamming and stuff too; but I would classify that all as GM fiat. They're rules I wrote to fulfill specific purposes at my table and there's no guarantee that any other tables would have the same holes to fill.

    I would post a picture but I'm photo rangebanned by some fucking guy in my city who probably posted CP or something. I have another game that's way more robust but only the alpha was ever released and it's not /m/ so it's pretty irrelevant.

    finally got around to trying to model one of my sketches.
    dont really know how the torso should look, or how the shoulders should be articulated
    >>
    >>24009576
    the torso looks about correct. the arms can maybe just be attached to the sides of the shoulder drums, although you might want to come up with some mechanism for the drums to be lifted like shoulder blades.
    the biggest issue i actually have with this is you might need to come up with a heel design for the foot
    >>
    I wanted to post in here when the new drawing is finished but I feel it will take a lot of time, so what do you guys of Titano? Anything I should change?

    a lot of my sketches have those kinda haunched legs/feet. i like the look of them, but yea im sure none of them could ever actually stand. wish there was a way to make it work
    a magnetic stand maybe?
    >>
    >>24012874
    they exist in nature, but technically the lower leg is just a very long foot and those animals are just standing on their toes. they tend to benefit from being able to actually sit flat on those feet while resting
    >>
    >>24011989
    this overall design is great. you've gotta get the eye track shape down pat though it looks goofy on some of these panels

    Hello everyone, been a while. Thanks for keeping the thread bumped. Here's a robot master I drew. His name is Think Man and he spends all day thinking about stuff. He's so good at thinking that he can do a day's worth of thinking in half the time though, so he spends the other half of the day thinking about things to think about the next day.

    it's decent, it captures the esence of megaman but i feel that its too generic, maybe you could turn him into a thought bubble machine?
    >>
    >>24016337
    i think i kneecapped myself a bit with his design because from the get-go i said "no brain domes", which is just the easiest way to make a smart robot. i'm gonna let it simmer on the stove for a while and see if i can't figure out that special something it's missing

    >>
    >>24024374
    thanks, tho actually 3d printing it might be a long ways off. i'd like to figure out an articulation system that uses screws or something to adjust tightness. i cant stand the flimsy, wobbly feeling of a lot of models

    i think i'd like to ultimately print it in resin and then make casts of the parts, and do cold casting with them

    np, i just draw mechs, i dont necessarily think about the universe theyre in. i guess if anything, i consider it my own universe. that particular mech id say is a kondo kobayashi inspired one mostly (cause of the chunkiness), definitely some zaku elements in it too though.

    I occasionally use Koikatsu to bring some robot ideas to life. Here's one inspired by Russian fighters like the Flanker and Fulcrum, I think Russian inspired mecha tend to lean too hard on the Soviet armored shitbox aesthetic rather than the sleek look a lot of their fighters tend to have.

    Samantha Meall, journalist and secretly half-succubus (or rather Night-Clan, though the Night Clan are here the blood-drinking seductive and aristocratic Night Clan are source for legends of vampires and succubi alike). Orphaned from a young age, she eventually became a succesful journo and reporter, thanks in no small part to her ancestral ability to sense the shedding of blood and spiritual defilement, which points her towards juicy stories. Though she tries to appear cool, sauve, and affable, there's a deep loneliness in her heart.

    Caught up in the invasion of the Fae and the machinations of the machine cult, she becomes a secondary ally who scrounges information for the protaganists.

    Also a huge dork who's very proud of her measurements, yet easily flustered.

    Hobbies include drawing lewd doujins of various magical girl franchises which she puts on the net under a pen name and hides very carefully at her place under lock and key.
