Righto folks, here's where I'd like your input please! I want to do a Pete standee to join the two that I have already of Cap'n and Polly. I've drawn Pete in various poses / situations and so I'd like you to tell me which you like the best.



The one with him and the CD cases in front of his face - try and imagine the CD cases not being see-through!

Let me know which you like the most and I'll be eternally grateful Smiley

Cheesy Here's the other standees we have made (well - ahem - Mark has made Tongue)

http://www.theyakshack.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=1893.0

In a way the one with the pistols fits in well with the Cap'n one from before, but I like the dodgy pirate Pete trying to sell counterfeit goods ones Grin, in fact that one on the bottom left with "MS Offise" CDs is so like a guy we met outside a computer fair by the Tottenham Court Road once Grin

The one with the trench coat OR the dodgy looking one (Pete looking dodgy, not the sketch Wink ) fits in best with Pete's persona, I reckon! Leaning towards the coat one more though Wink

Haha yes I'd love to make all five but I think if I were going to make that many I'd finish off the rest of the crew first. Plus, it costs about £20 to print and back and laminate them so they ain't cheap! Then I have to risk use of my hands cutting them out with a sharp knife (and the stuff they back it with is really tough so there have been several near misses).

I tried finding a company that would print them onto large cardboard standees but I couldn't. Anyone know of one?

OK guys well thanks for the feedback. The winner is obvious by quite a landslide: Trenchcoat Pete! And so without further delay I present to you the finished artwork:



Just gotta get that sucker printed now! I'll post pictures when it's finished.
