Cubes, Time PDA's, DWM and more!

This week Josh Howe has joined Kas at the workshop and they have been working hard to produce parts for many of our orders!

Flatline Cubes

The Flatline cubes have now been inked and buffed and are ready to ship!


Burnt Tools, Time PDA's and Puzzle Boxes

We have printed out the next batch of burnt tools which Josh has taken home to begin painting.


The final parts for our Time PDA's have been printed, which will commence full production once Josh H has finished off all of his current work.



Another batch of Puzzle Box parts has been printed which will be sanded and painted by Kas in the coming week. After that, electronics for all Puzzle boxes will be installed and then they will be shipped!




Fossilised Hands



For a long time Kas and Josh H have been planning on making a lifecast style mould to help speed up production of our Fossilised and Regenerated hands. This week, we decided to focus on the Fossilised one, which came out successful! The remaining work is to make a final small mould which will cover the top of hand. After that, the hands can be slush cast which will allow multiple hands to be produced per day with minimal finishing work required before paintwork from Josh H
