Have you tried using the inner shape as the third bit (skinny line or blob of paint)?
you mean something like this:
short/long 01101101101000101101101100111101111101101101111100101000111000101101111101111101111100111001101101101101101000101101111100101000111100101100111001101100
yellow/red 00010101001011011100101100000000101110111000111100001010111000011100010111111101011100111101001100101001101100110001111000110000101110101100011101110010
green/blue 10001101001010111100001110110111110110010000101101000000110011011100011000101010011110010000001110100100010111111111011000011111101001011011010010101000
slim/fat 01001100001100011101011101011100001110001101011100010000111111000110011000100011010000011001001101001100011000101001011100011111110100111011011000111100
it is a possibility, in some cases the blobs (slim/fat) look like there were corrected.
