Not bad for a first. What psi are you running it at?

Is that a piece of tape wrapped around it?

Looks pretty good for your first cloud. The paint looks glossy (it may just be the pictures) which in my opinion makes it looks toy-ish. A flat black would make it look better.

Nice diharrea gun there (I say this picturing what it looks like firing). The best thing about clouds is that they are simple but so much fun. if you make a vortex you will notice aconsiderable performance difference.

I would say that having the Air Inlet protruding up so much in the BB Chamber would definately affect the rate of fire,Id alter that so it sits flush with the bottom of the BB Chamber if possible..............
