It looks sufficiently fragile to have gained that large crack.
Well it's made from camping mat foam , not sure where the crack is ?

Just below the left headlight and again halfway back from the headlight to the scuttle but on second look they're probably cuts to allow for a join for shaping though does give the impression of cracking that's been repaired. It seems to mark fairly easily judging by the numerous marks. It's ingenious enough and the shape is pleasing but aesthetically the finish doesn't float my boat.

Most likely cuts as he has achieved a almost 3D shape from flat panels , no mean achievement

Signs of use are good though , shows it has a life and carries it's scars well.

I suspect the finish could be emulsion paint as the inside is a different colour ?
