White Rook Studios - Making stompy robots and other things

Coming This Weekend

Posted on July 6, 2023August 16, 2025 by WhiteRook_45

All I have to do is make the bases and zip these up.

Working on the Lance Leader ones now. They will be ready by the weekend as well.

Happy Birthday, America!

We are not perfect, not by a long shot. We have our problems and some of them are getting worse, some are getting better. But overall, I think we are a pretty dang good place to live and be from.

Orion Cockpit Through Time

So part of what I have been doing on my variants is trying to make changes to the design that show the progression of time and design update. A lot like the way a 69 Mustang doesn’t look the same as a 72, an 80, or a 2023 version.

I don’t want to do total design changes, because that would be overkill, and time consuming, but various details help sell the illusion

So, the first image is the primitive Orion followed by the ON1-K and then the ON-V.

I’ve done other body changes as well on them to some of the detail, but one thing I am really liking is how the arm mounted SRMs came out. Beefy and intimidating.

Almost done with the variants so I should have them ready by this weekend.

I Give It Three Stars…

So the lower leg isn’t finished being bulked up and out, but… do the legs look right? I kinda feel like they are short. I mean, it’s a mech and they can have whatever size/shape/length leg you want, right? But do these work? Let me know what you think in the comments.

Poll Time

Posted on July 2, 2023August 16, 2025 by WhiteRook_45

I realized I have not done this in too long so, here we are, a new poll to decide what I am going to build next

This post is only available to members.

Orion

So I did the shoulder launcher a little different. The LRM15 and the SRM4 are both built into the rack and separated by the beveling of the pieces. Generally the SRM4 is mounted on the lower torso separately from the LRM.

I like how it looks, but let me know what you think

Working on the Next One

Bet you can guess what it is

Launch!

Posted on June 25, 2023August 16, 2025 by WhiteRook_45

The Stuka is now up and ready for you to download.

I have also made some changes so that the Lance Leaders and Company Commanders can download the bonus file and it will show in the store and in the Featured Items section. For those who are either Mech Jocks or not members, you can purchase the extra file but it will not have the normal discount that you would get on the regular releases.

Almost Ready

Posted on June 24, 2023August 16, 2025 by WhiteRook_45

I just have a few things left to do and these will be ready to put up. The website will be going into maintenance mode tomorrow for a while as I get it ready.

Hopefully I will have the Lance Leader only download ready to go once I have reworked things so that you will be able to download the Lance Leader files directly.
