This is my first model i've ever done, 100% hand painted and customized with lights, an upper hatch that can actually be opend, painted interior and control panel with lights that blink; i also tried to add an R/C engine, but it was impossible to control due its low power.
On a side note: the lights are very powerful and can actually blind the other players, preventing them to take accurate measures and making more mistakes during the shooting phase

Wow nice stuff.

Are you sure it's your first model?

**Cottonjaw**

First model? Or first model you're posting?

**MdM**

Yes, it's my very first model to be assembled and first to be painted: i've started tabletop gaming 4-5 weeks ago with the Blood Angels Battleforce, then i got addicted and now i already spent 500€ on miniatures, paint and tools.
It took me almost a week just to paint the Rhino, i've been reading all the guides/tutorial i was able to find, and trying every kind of tecniques; in some areas there are even 5-6 layers of paint.
The electronics were not a problem for me since i've already have very good skills with them.

First Rhino AND Paintjob!?

**MdM**

Thanks very much, i was still unsatisfied about the paintjob... looks like i watched too many Golden Demon models

**jackanory**

Some people take years to get that good!

**Phayse**

Great mini - now clean your work area!

**hellrai3er**

tres bien! wish i had the patience to do some of that.

**akira5665**

The lights are great, but the bullet holes/battle damage is superb.

1st or 50th - very fine work either way - if it really is your first....

**Jordankeeps**

Looks good, i dont really like the bullets at the front though to much for my taste

First model? Great job. Makes my 10 years of painting look like hell lol
