A lick of paint

Having given our sheep its first taste of expanding foam as part of it's shiny new coat, we began the careful and gruellingly painstaking task of applying our creative teams artistic design to the paintwork.

As we waited for the courier to arrive with their drawings, we got out our rollers and emulsion and started it ourselves.

They say that you can give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for life...
...But give Ian Mansfield a Digestive Biscuit and he'll paint your car (whether you want it painted or not!).

Ian, our hired help and co-driver, has had a biscuit

Keeping to the contours of the fine bodywork, Ian and his roller...man and machine

The artist, dabbing at his canvas. Look at him roll






And so we have our first coat of paint.









The work is scrutinised by Darren, our quality control engineer.




Next.....the car goes to the workshop
