Default RE: Unofficial

Nah, I 'm a Brit Not a Kiwi.

I saw some jetboat racing when in New zealand Hence the graphics. Plus some of the Mauri inspired art is pretty sweet.

They are home made/drawn on Inkscape and then printed on laser waterslide paper. Works a whole lot better than i thought. Only glitch was the engine as i used white backed paper to show up on the darker paints. Worked fine until i lacquered the whole thing (to protect the graphics when the boat gets wet!) anf the background colour (printed)changed shade under the lacquer (despite carefully matching it on the PC) Not the end of the world.
