Mark has read your comments and Im hoping he will come up with some MK2 designs soon. but for anyone else please comment on then.
Many thanks to all who have responded so far.

Did you get my email Craig?

Hi Joey

sent email a few days ago, sent it again this morning hope it works this time.

2 1 3

2 needs some more lettering at the bottom to balance the overall page and to fill the empty space. Keep to that font and colour but about 2/3 of the point size.

Also the paintwork is scabby - just make sure it looks in pristine condition - the better the actual paintwork on the robot, the less retouching you have to do. It has to be looking its best.

BTW All the posters I designed (Pillow Torque, Small Torque and Team Batter) have all been professionally printed.

It has to be one, it portrays the name of the robot so well. The halo needs to look more like it is going around the sword. It looks more like its slapped on top of it. The width of the halo would be thinner the further away it is from the camera.

2 does look good but the lightning needs a bit of work IMO. Now I am not a lightning expert but I believe they look like plant roots made of light.

I would say yours are a bit too uniform, some need to be a little bit thicker then others. There need s to be a glow. Very easy in photoshop or paintshop pro. Duplicate lightning layer and move to back, fill color yellow (or what ever color you want), gaussian blur back layer.

Third one looks like too much is going on. Its good but not as good as the others.

Im not an illustrator but I do have a bit of an eye for these things. They all look nice and would make good posters.

I quite like it :) The lightning bolt theme seems to be the way to go.

Craig ehy dont you get all the ideas in the size you will sell them (A3?) then see which looks best, suppose you could get so many of each and let the public decide then make more of that poster on the next print run
