Amazing job. Only thing I don't buy, is that he painted the whole car with hand brush and small tinlets...

What is amazing is his technique to work with cardboard which is stiff in one direction. The way the tire is made is very real looking.

The size helps as it is big in 1:1 scale. There should a lot of computer work before he starts the cutting. There is a software that paper modellers used to create 3D paper models for compound curved surfaces.

I’m wondering if there is a kit available. Or at a minimum step-by-step plans/drawings to build your own.
Imagine using wood instead and wood filler. Then spray it instead of paint brush. With wood it’d be sturdy enough to sit in it!

It is pretty nice. But unlike the real car, I don't think it will last too long in the rain lol. ;)
