Shamelessā¦ but well executed! 
I personally prefer the decals not to be vertically opposed like they are especially on the Rothmans, but I love the designs in general. Nice work!

Thank you! I was going to aknowledge your awesome work in a specific thread. Homage to the Heritage is an obvious inspiration for this, with the only difference being that this is specific to rally. This was just a design exercise to try to replicate the liveries of all the WRC winners since 1977 ā this is why some decals are vertically opposed as they are like that in the rally cars. This was also an excuse to learn Blender to create these renders which are still very rough.
Iām planning to create a thread soon with all the liveries I have so far (1977-1990) and Iāll give a big shout-out to you and your past work. I donāt plan to do anything close to what you did. Using Splattergoat to print one of the liveries will be the closest thing to becoming reality.

Dude, donāt be silly. I love it. Go ahead, make them and make them as amazing as possible. Sell boards, sell the skins, make yourself rich. Itās cool. Create what you love. All creativity is borrowed, after all 
Full disclosure though, Iām already commissioned to do an Audi S1E2 but at this rate, itās still a ways off

Thereās 4mm between motors. Iām using 70mm shoulder bolts for the axles. Was just joking I could have gotten it down to 1mm between motors if I could find slightly shorter axles/shoulder bolts.
Your build was the inspiration to try and get it below 250mm

I think the question is why do you need shorter shoulder bolts to do that? Could you just add some 1mm washers on the shoulder bolts before installation?

Yea, I had actually thought about throwing 1.5mm of washers on each side but then my brain kind of said, āreally dude? Whatās that 3mm gonna get you?ā So I left it at 245mm total width

Its like cell phones. Everyone keeps going bigger and bigger, and I keep bitching about wanting smaller. All the while old age has shot my eye sight so I canāt see shit on a small screen anyway
I really just wanted a light weight board for shopping runs. My others builds start at 25lbs and go up above 35lbs (imperial weights for @b264ās sake)

I know what you mean, I appreciate a small powerful phone. No wonder thatās how I like my boards.
35lbs is kinda hefty. Carrying my 20lbs short board still doesnāt feel light weight at all compared to rolling my 30lbs board.

Itās sexy. Itās sleek. I need it under my feet.
