Hey guys here's another one im working on, I started it yesterday and been working non stop on it. I used farm core board, card board, fomies, and some styrene.

Started with A paper template

Did some work on the handle

Added some details some details with foamies

Then i did a quick layer of primer so the detail show up a bit better in the picture

Work on the upper part thing.

And this is where its at right now

pshhh, i wouldn't exactly say the best, theres a ton a flaws. But maybe I'll mold it in a far later date, I have molding experience what so ever, But i do plan on molding my M6G. HA I'd like to take on something small before i mold something as big as the ma37

Amazing job, I've been using foam and attempting to replicate the Reach pistol. What material do you happen to be using? As it appears much cleaner and wonderful.

Wow, Is there any place where you got the idea/tutorial from?
It looks more effective than whatever madness I tried to attempt.

Nah I don't know of any, I've just been working with cardboard for awhile. But I'm pretty sure you can find one.
