Good luck with your new project.

Just a quick critique: The text "Lightwave tires" looks strange because, as far as I can tell, it's not actually centered around the middle of the tire. Um, I'm not eloquent so I'll just make a picture of what I'm trying to say...

get it to bend right

Hi Astro,

Looks great. I think ur technique is great.

I wonder if U need to look at some ref material of the fabric.

Can U use Motion designer to add a bit of gravity and wind to give a more believeable effect. Just an idea. Don't know if it would work though

Keep it up Astro. U doing great.

Best wishes
