Default Freq-E sKinz Axial Hardline Body sKinz - Bones - Installed

These came out looking pretty cool, if I do say so myself

These are the Axial Hardline New Tattoo sKinz. Available NOW on my website, vendors thread or here via pm.

Started by washing the body with Dawn dish detergent, then popped on for RCC Live with Jason's live build.

Here's everything ready to go.



Next it was time to shoot some Pactra Sprint White. Pew.... The build is coming along nicely. Except Jason isn't doing any work. Figures.



Next up, start the peel and stick. These sKinz lay down super nice so it went very quick.



And then a quick trim and voila'... done!





Total time, start to finish was about 30mins. Gotta love that!

Hope you guys like!

~Freq

Looking good Neal!

I can't imagine anyone doing custom paint anymore w/ how easy it is to use a wrap.

Wraps look great and are easier for sure but they do weigh more. And that weight is the highest part of the chassis. Personal choice.

Those wraps look great. I just checked out the site and you do some great work.

I doubt the difference is more than tenths of an ounce.

Great work as always Freq E.

Thanks sir!

I was worried you'd see this and I'd be getting a phone call

Glad you like it. No substitute for real custom paint, but a cool quick alternative.

30 minutes versus 12 hours. Somehow I don't see a downside to these skins, except Tom is the one putting in the 12 hours. I have always loved your work.

Default Very cool...

I'm thinking light-med gray paint, or maybe even light blue, with the grayscale digital camo skin.
Looks awesome! I can't wait!

BTW, Where the heck are the Hardline bodies in stock? Or whats the ETA?

And, do the skins come with tips & tricks for accurate and crease free application?
Thanks.

They hold up surprisingly well. They have a clear laminate on the top.

Thanks guys.

Thanks.
If I can put one on almost perfectly than about anyone can. I have the coordination and patience of a baby rhino.
