    Ryan posted a video of this car getting tapped off a couple of months ago, I always wondered how it looked.

    God it is gorgeous.

    Excellent job, I watched the video when it was put online, very impressed. It is cool to see the order of the process also. I would love to learn to do this someday.

    These pictures are in the wrong thread, they should be in the "Art Show", This is way beyond just craftsmanship. Truly at a much higher level. Thank you for sharing.

    Your talent at taping pales in comparison to your skill at consistent shading with candy.

    Unreal.
