I've been trying to get the ol' LaserJet 3 on the 'net by itself (and out of my room), and it's requiring it's own PC to do it. So I've been trying to work on terry, the spare PC I have. Aparently, I have a drive that's not working quite well.
Ugh. Reformat the drive to DOS and SpinRite the disk.
Of course, terry's floppy drive doesn't like to boot, and the CD ROM I have in there will work, but the BIOS likes floppy emulation. Jeriatric BIOSes, can't use 'em, can't upgrade 'em. But I found a floppy drive which does work in there, so I got OpenDOS in there working, which in turn boots SpinRite.
So back to artwork. Just realized I need to splatter spots on Julia. The pattern isn't quite specific.
Xendrian needs to be finished, though. I'm half-way through color on that.
