And now the finished product. 

I was a little shy about traipsing through the Piazza del Duomo dressed as a giant armadillo, but no one paid much attention to me and the two workmen carrying lumber up the side street who chatted with me seemed to find the whole thing rather charming. 

I was glad we finished filming before the big group of German tourists showed up, though. One does not want to be so colorful as to show up on strangers' vacation reels.
