. . . maybe . . . so far it's just a quirky collage of found objects displaying relatively natural effects, but it made me think . . .

. . . about using frisket/resist patterns and a sunlamp with and without Retro-Brite to enhance the the platinum -> mustard patterns so as to cover the entire face of the Quadra 950 with the NIB Optical Bezel and the yellow side panel only. Think of it as an enhancement of the two tone side panel/front panel and pre-existing StickerFlage.

The pattern would be in large patches, reminiscent of the massively enlarged halftone patterns in 60's Pop Art with a Post-Apocalyptic Cubist flair. The Cubist motif is already present in the offset asymmetrical box design. Dunno, it'd be a bit of an homage to the movie Hackers and more subtle than real DigiFlage. It's also an oblique reference/homage to the Terminator Trilogy.

Sounds like waayyyyy too much work, but it might be interesting.

What's the verdict, straight Retro-Bright, leave it as is . . . or go for it? :?:
