I was lucky enough to illustrate for @jmcelroy.bsky.social's new book and here they are if you'd like to see them!
Amanda did the illustrations for the book and I can’t emphasize enough how lovely they are!

Behold, the best Renault 14 video on the internet! Granted, it's about the only Renault 14 video on the internet involving the car actually driving, but that makes it a pretty good time-capsule of a real #WeirdCarBS. Nice one @upndown.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5Nq...

Very #weirdcarbs - guy figured out how to build chassis, body, even the suspension arms out of wood, with special wood composite for the body panels. Super-interesting stuff. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nz5a...

I think the thing I love about that version even more is it's not a touch screen - there are infrared emitters/receivers (visible as bumps) arrayed across the edges of the screen, and 'buttons' were placed in specific locations so that 'touching' them broke the beams in an X/Y coordinate.
