Shadow Foam

OP Nemesis Raffle Donation.

This job came about because of my poor impulse control and wanting to do something nice. The VMP-2 hasn’t had the greatest launch but with the fixes we’ve developed over in my development community discord it’s now actually not only viable, but also pretty good! So when I saw the VMP-2M included in the raffle prizes for the SLMF Op Nemesis event I thought that some might consider it a bit of a crappy prize due to the launch problems. Thus, I asked Will if I could donate a few things to the raffle to be included with this prize. Originally it was just the TDC Tensioners, the replacement reset arm and then a £30 off voucher for the CNC nozzle that was soon to be released. I had already purchased a case and Teal Shadow Foam for my Noveske N4 but I couldn’t help but keep glancing at it while doing some tech work. Eventually I thought it doesn’t hurt to ask, so I checked with Will to see if this could also be added, I got a very enthusiastic yes! Typically I need the replica to hand to cut it into the case, however this time I luckily just so happen to have a VMP-2M in my workshop! So with the owners permission I used it to create this case. I really wanted to sell the idea of it being unique and a one off, so I made sure to include the OP Nemesis title at the top. The prize included 2 extra short mags so I made sure to cut slots for those plus the included long mag, I then proceeded to cut another 2 slots so that whomever won it would be able to easily expand to accommodate the extra mags. When the first number was drawn from the raffle, much to my surprise, the winner picked this prize! My terrible lack of self esteem was well and truly shocked! I grabbed them after the raffle was complete and asked if they had puchased one of the challenge coins from the event and they had, so I offered to cut that into the lid to which they clearly accepted. I really enjoyed making this one. **Number of Objects**: 6 (technically) **Time Taken**: ~ 3 hours **Estimated Cost**: £228
