Hi Gerado, & Welcome to the Monte Caro Family...

I've never seen one, but I would like 2...I tried to photoshop one, but don't have the talent to do it right ....I hope maybe someone reading this might try `it to see what it may look like ?
Let us know if you decide to do it ?

Good Luck & EnJoy the MCF

That looks like a LOT of work. Will the end result be worth the hours of effort?

Impressive! Although seeing the Monte Carlo in that example makes me feel so depressed about how mine looks right now. I will see it as an accomplishment if I can get mine to look at least half as good as that one.
