that's pretty freaky looking, man. i dig it.
question... how hard is the surface? did you add anything to harden the paper or just paint? are you concerned about damaging it?

Tested it by tugging at the curves and knocking it with knuckles and won't budge at all :D I used gripping glue after the mold is dry to cover the whole panel prior to the sprayjob. Covered in glue till its all shiny meaning excessive glue on top.Quote:

Thanks man. Still preparing the material tho. And had been very busy travelling back n forth to catch Chelsea Football Club in training (yesterday) and the match against the national team which I just came back from. Tomorrow I'll need to go lunch with ex colleagues so probably will show more or less of the keyboard by this weekend.
