Uh, yeah. I can't say that I'm attracted to this particular design. I've seen a lot of Dr. D's work over the years, however, and I think that his creativity and skill are in the "kneel in deference" category.

Probably like many people, I hope that some day, I will simultaneously have a deserving bicycle and the money to get a Dr. Deltron paint job.

Edit: Went back and looked at the photos. I was about to remark earlier about the amazing job he does to get a liquid-like depth in the paint. Then I noticed that this Pin has a sort of underwater theme (or, that's one thing I saw--I actually thought of an aquarium). Then I started to like it.
