While this is your forum Stridex and you can disseminate any information you choose, i speak from experience ( in abundance).

The one piece is perfect for beginners. Now the "sacrifice" in quality that i think your referring to in a round about way is no sacrifice at all. Eliminating air bubbles isnt going to happen unless you vacuform ( which isnt better than either style mentioned above in myopinion in regard to detail- once again i know). You may minimize bubbles with "squish" but not anymore than being careful with one part.

As i said ...for the beginner one piece provides an abundance of material for additional molds (i.e. more CARS) and lessens the amount of money you spend on materials ( which for a beginner is CRITICAL as this stuff isnt cheap REGARDLESS of which materials you choose. Alumilite is one of the cheapest out there so that gives you an idea of what the prices are like. I mean cheap in PRICE not quality). I think the bottomline is try WHICHEVER works for you as its fun and you can make the body you want.

In regard to your last question Stridex....because of the "nature" ofthings you can contact me personally if you wish.
