Very nice Chuy. It must be extremely light as well to have 26 cubes and full size wheels.

That looks so much better than Krystal Deelite.

Yup, stayed a little thicker along the sides (1/4" vs 1/8") to assure rigidity but it robbed me of a cube. I will try 1/8" sides this next time. The Zeebzob, I had to step up my game. Puma shoots his cars like they are female models so it left me feeling inadequate just shooting a car on the work bench LOL |

Puma shoots his cars like they are female models I think he might be doing other things with them like they were female models as well.   |

COOL!
So, the axles are mid air.
What is the story with the tape up front?

The cover is actually a piece of tape that runs from rear to front and wraps around the nose to the bottom.

Is all the tape on?
So, reason you cans see the front is because it is triple thick there?

He has the tape on top of the car like a skin of Monokote...you can see the front edge because the car is clear and the tape wraps around the body. You can't see the tape wrap around the back of the car because it's hidden by the weights. |

I've been "ironing on" tape like monokote. Seems to adhere better and works out wrinkles. Just use it on low to medium setting.
