WOW ! Those look awesome. Wish you were located near me, I'd definitely get you to do a couple of stand skins for me. Really like the lighting behind the canopy and doors.Being a carpenter I've built a lot of stands for myself and others.
Basically I do the same thing, build a frame just to get the tank up and running/cycling, and then do the pretty part, so my skins work on wood frames or metal frames, they are all basically a U shape that is free standing, slides right over frame, or can even be pulled away if needed.
Once they are up against frame I don't really think you can tell it's not attached, especially once doors and ledge are on.
This can be done w/ either 1x face frame, or a solid sheet of ply, birch is pretty much my go to.
I avoid MDF when I can and don't like it for marine applications personally.

How 'bout this?
OK you win!!!!!
Not a competition, but I'm glad you like it. I'm happy with it. I sent my daughter Kaitlyn your comment. She's the artist, I can't draw a straight line with a ruler.
