Hi guys.
Here's a picture of what gave Pearl her name...her eyes...
(http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg25/Gimpdiggity/Pearl%20the%20Pleo/DSCF4380_zps11e64702.jpg)
They're a very light pinkish white...very pretty.
Just wanted to share!!

They are magnificent ;D Very very pretty.

Oh yes, you can really see the colour in that picture. :D The colouring of the skin on her head is lovely too, very unusual.
I just love the Pleo eyes - they're wonderfully expressive and give you a real sense of an 'intelligence' inside those gorgeous critters. Really set them apart from other robots I think.

Those eyes are very pretty indeed!
I have to say, I'm very fond of the name 'Pearl'. For many years I drove an old Austin A30, the same colour as your Pearl's eye patches, and her name was Pearl. Like this one:

Thanks guys, I really think her eyes are great!
And Crewella, that's an AWESOME car. I wish more of the small vehicles in that style would have made it to the States. It would be great to get one to have and work on. Unfortunately, old Triumphs seem to be about the only type of British cars that are ever actually available on the market here in the States. I had a coworker a few years back that collected Triumphs...he had about six TR7s and TR8s. Very cool little roadsters...about as opposite of an American sportscar as you could possibly get from that era!!

I love old cars, including old Triumphs, but I do love old American cars too. :D
Sorry to go 'off topic'! :-[ :dino-chase:
