This week, I have finally edited up my over 6 month build of the OMC Gryphon. It took me several false starts and I really don't like the end result. It ran away from me. I wish I had 3D printed it as I understand how to model with that medium but this was all scratchbuilding or kitbashing and I don't really have skills in those areas. I hit wall after wall and eventually just finished it and it looks nothing like I planned!

Check out the Original Mecha Contest: originalmechacontest.com

And the winners livestream: youtu.be/paOTYG-1fF0 I'm about 1:42:00 in if you want to see what they said about my entry.

It will be running again in 2023 so please consider taking part. Despite my issues, it is a great contest and deserves to grow.
