    This is a custom that I did up using a Renderform garage kit I got as part of a class last week. It's my first custom, so I don't know how to make any parts myself or have the proper tools to do so.

    I'm just learning to paint, so I focused just on that. Not perfect, could've put some more detail in, but got to a point where I just had to stop and enjoy it. Maybe move on to a new piece for some more experience.

    Anyway, thought it looked cool so I'm throwing it up here for people to see. I do work for a store that is also using these same pics to show off the kit, but thought I'd do this under my own user and not link back to the store since it's a purely custom based thread.

    Been following the great customs here for a long time, thought it be nice to put in an entry of my own.

    I hope Renderform makes a slightly altered version available to all at a later date. This would sell out in a day.

    yup it does. Trying to figure out a way to make it look like a cannon thought and not some weird space craft it is now. Will post some updated alt mode pics once I play with it and figure it out.

    The cannon is part of the kit. It comes completely clear, so i got to do whatever I wanted with it. Was awesome to play with the paint on that piece.

    Appreciate the encouragement from everyone here. This will definitely make getting into my next one much more motivating. Glad everyone is liking that kit too, I thought it looked so good when I first saw it.
