Pifco motorist's lamp

L found this little lamp in a charity shop and gave it to P for his birthday - it's ever so cute though I keep thinking he ( yes, it feels like  a he) is a  little bit sad or dejected.



I should have simplified things a bit more  and probably gone a it darker in places, but it's okay. We got a battery and a bulb for it and lo and behold - it works! the light on top even flashes. I thought about painting it with the little front beam shining out, but actually , it took me so long to draw/redraw/undo/rub out etc etc , his poor  battery would have died a slow pointless death. Ellipses and shiny things - yuk.
