Car gets a paintjob and is renamed "Smurf"

Here are some pictures of my baby mice, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, when they were just changing from fuzzies to hoppers:

They're just about grown now.

Here are some pictures of the Smurf Car. It was supposed to be a much darker, metallic blue with more green in it. Not smurf blue. Computer color being what it is does not pick up cobalt blue very well - and turns it into smurf blue - but that's not all the computer's fault in this case...

I think a third (and maybe a fourth) coat of something darker is definitely in its future...

Here are some pictures of Lyra:

"Not working" is one way of putting it... "Where do I hide this thing until I can fix it" would be another. I plan to rent a sprayer and buy a couple of gallons of black or very dark blue and redo it. The color indicated on the cans I bought was much darker than it turned out, so whatever I get will have to be almost black.

Heh... what I meant was, the photos are not showing up for me when I click the links....

Hm weird. They're all working from here, so not sure what's wrong.
Maybe that particular shade of blue doesn't register on most Terran computers...
