Today I applied 1 coat of white paint to the roof, and also 2 coats of yellow paint to the left side and left fender and then 1 coat of yellow paint to the roof.

My neighbour said what I am doing now is pop art. I think he is very close to the truth!

Now it of course started to rain so I wonder how the paint will survive it...

The other side is ready as well.
Tried to make a test drive with a new car but unfortunately trailer`s plug does not match cas`s socket. Need to sort it out.

Hello again.

Last change to the appearance of trailer`s body: painting scheme of a rear wall.

Please tell me, what do you think about my computer simulation. Yellow shape corresponds with a shape on the roof and a sleeping cat makes the whole thing less seriuos.

What is your opinion?

I like cats and I bet the character will appeal to your young daughter, too.

It should inspire an appropriate name for your camper, too, such as:
Lazy Cat
Cat Nap
Do Not Disturb The Sleeping Cat (Do Not Disturbed for short)
Sleeping Tiger
Lay-n-Wait
Warm Spot in the Sun (WSS)
The Rat Trap (although that is counter descriptive of your fine work :D )
Mouser
Keeping Tabs (a play on Tabby cat)

I could go on all day. :lol:
