Mr Chop Chop and the Turkey

Good morning, everyone! I hope you all are ready for Thanksgiving. I myself will be making some pies later today and tomorrow. Dutch Apple and Pumpkin are on the menu, along with some Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Also, I am currently working on the Hatchetman (aka – Mr Chop-chop) and should have that done by the weeks end. Coming up tomorrow will be the post with the new poll on what I should make after the Hatchetman so make sure to look for that one.

WEBSITE AND MMF – On the interwebs side of things, I am working on setting up my Tribes account on MyMiniFactory and will be rolling that out in January with the Coffee Club, Mech Jock, and Lance Leader tiers. I am considering putting the Company Commander one on there, but I am not sure so give me input on that if you think I should expand it over there or just keep it here.

The reason I am doing this, for those who are not aware, is because I will be shuttering White Rook Studios website by the end of February. The upkeep is time consuming and that is time I would rather be making models. Also, MMF now offers many of the features I put on the website (like memberships and permanent discounts) that were unavailable when I first started my website.

So, in short, I can do many of the same things over there that I do on my own and it takes the upkeep cost and time at a minimum.

What does this mean for you? Well, on Patreon, not a lot. I have put the discount codes for MMF in the email you get when you sign up for a Patreon membership, so you should all have that (if not, let me know) but if you have models on the White Rook Studios site then you WILL want to download them before the end of February.

Once the WooCommerce plug ins are shut off, you will not be able to log in at all and I will not be able to open it either. WooCommerce is, sadly, too expensive to keep that going so please BACK UP YOUR MODELS!!!

I will keep posting warnings (and models) as we get closer to the end, and the beginning.

What do you want for Christmas

Here is your chance to throw me some ideas for the end of the month poll on what mech to build. Give me some comments on what you would like to see and I’ll build a poll for end of the month for the December model. 1

Quick Update

Hey everyone! So I apologize that the Tomahawk was not ready this weekend. Started feeling really dizzy and kinda lightheaded so I rested. That being said, here is what is going on – Doctor said it is my body adjusting to the medications and it will fade.

Also, doctor said that my heart is in good shape because my body made bypasses around the blockage so it looks like in the future (I’m guessing next year) I will either have a stint put in for that or they will do open heart to replace the artery section. Doc is voting on open heart since it’s a permanent fix and a stint will eventually fail and have to be replaced.

Until that time I’m going to keep modeling and the Tomahawk should be done tomorrow with the renders so I am pushing for a Wednesday release of both the Tomahawk and the Tomahawk II versions.

Thanks again for all the support

Website Closing – Part III

Evening everyone!

As I mentioned earlier I will be shutting down the website and I want to make sure it doesn’t catch anyone by surprise.

Please reach out to me if you have any missing models from your account so I can get that fixed before February. After February the plug ins that control that will be deactivated and I will not be able to gift models or have the accounts available. It will all be shut off.

So, please look over the monthly spreadsheet I will be posting tomorrow to double check what you should have. To do this go to the My Account link an then go to the downloads tab.

This is certainly not the end of my modeling and making stompy robots and things. I still have this weird OCD desire to make every variant of every model out there (Hey, it’s good to have goals, right?) I will just be continuing that obsession over on My Mini Factory and yes, there will be the exact same memberships available over there that I have had here.

Thank you again for all the support
