Another few minutes. Some this morning, some last night. I'm probably going curse it by saying so, but I haven't had a "That was a huge mistake" moment—yet.

When this guy first pulled out in front of me my first reaction to racing stripes on a Toyota Echo was, "Love it. Dream big." The more I looked at them the simultaneously worse and better they got. Also, "Duct Tape Racing Stripes" would be a great band name.

Getting mediaeval with pigments and materials that haven't even been around for a whole century. I was going down this path up until about twenty years ago when I got detoured.

Today's stabs. I think I'm about ready to start throwing some of what I tried out on the last one at it, but I don't think I'm going to have a moment to touch it until Monday at the earliest.
