Thanks for your nice feedback Mick. That one's from way back in January.

Not much to add there Mike, NB colours being so subjective and all. Maybe all-white stars would be a cleaner choice in this case?

Many thanks Peter, colours were inspired by Josep Druidis' image.

Now that you point it out, AND in your narrowband colour palette, yes there's definitely a skull there with clearly defined eye sockets, brow ridges and even the nasal cavity and the fine vertical bone (Ethmoid/Vomer?) within the nose.

Best

Cheers JA, hopefully you'll never unsee the skull now.

Thanks very much Dave - if you're going to revisit a classic target, you've gotta do something a bit special to garner folks attention.
