Looks not dissimilar to a cold war urban camo.

All key corrosion and rust areas have been highlighted for us in yellow though on the body but they missed the chassis?

He would be there wouldnt he justifying his new design with other designers not users!

I think it will be crashed in a lot. This is what the term "accident waiting to happen" is invented for. Mr. Green

Dazzle camo

Designed so you don't know which way a ship is heading, how fast its traveling or how far away it is. Can't see that being a great idea for a car Neutral

Now let me think ..... who is having a laugh here?

On the one side we have a UK designer with an international reputation for innovative design and being so on trend, plus a gong from the Queen for his services to UK plc. He has also made a shed load of money and is probably spending his evenings doing something more creative than bumping his gums on a forum.

On the other hand we have a group of unimpressed forum members with no apparent appreciation of his work or the creative process he struggles with daily.

Having thought some more about it ......... he should stick to designing over-priced, on-trend, fashionable underpants for those wishing to make a creative entrance to the bedroom. Defenders don't look to be his specialist topic.
