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.

[Kwameninja]

the pistol is all cardboard with foamies for the grip detail.

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.
