Where did you get the air conditioner? Is it in the kit or an aftermarket piece? (I'm looking at tiny pics on my cell phone)

Nifty! I'll bet you could trade some of those off in the Swap section of this website. That air conditionerr is really impressive.

Very impressive work. Clean and beautiful.

Now, about this printing on foil...how did that work? Regular printer? We had a thread awhile back about this so I ran some tests from my HP inkjet onto BMF and the ink wouldn't dry - it just rubbed off. Any tips?

Thanks for all the comments, i usually produce the chrome parts on the model myself. I use Corel Draw and some other programs for the drawing part, and I use plotter for making chrome foil stickers.

Some examples below :

Very ingenious. Plotter - so, like a vinyl cutter? I have always thought those coil be useful but never thought of cutting foil. Great.
