Question Help me choose my roof graphic from my own designs?

I designed some roof graphics based on the fact that I am Dutch. Please use the poll to help me choose which one to take. Thx.

The first one looks awesome. The second is a little close to the British lion if you are wishing to differentiate.

2&5, have you looked into doing it in a metalic blue to match the body colour? that would look

but if pushed for a choice on just 1 as it stands, then 5

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

United-States It is a ...

... no brainer.

The most attractive graphic IMHO is the lion in pic. #2. It really fits the roof well and looks as though it belongs there. The others would work but #2 is the best.

I like the design, it's unfortunate it's associated with football, If this would be the favorite of the mini2.com community I will have to start watching football games

That's not a bad idea, but I can imagine it will be hard to find vinyl to match the EB color? I will make some pictures to have a look at. Thx.

United-States Rakey's idea...

... about color-keying the graphic is quite good. I think a blue lion would look beautiful on your Mini's roof.

IMHO, when you finally get the graphic (whichever one you finally choose) made... get at least two... so you will have a ready spare for the day that forces of nature cause the original to peel back or off.

I know you will not forget to post pics once it is accomplished...



It is not how fast you go, but how you go.

I agree, it looks good! Thanx for your picture. But I have doubts the vinyl EB color will match the EB car color since the car is metallic?

In two weeks I will be visiting the Dutch historic aircraft museum, I hope to get the official colors of the Airforce logo of option 3 there. I'm thinking of this design but replace the dark blue with the Electric Blue in the logo, and use smaller rounds and make it a little less crowded. I'll post any progress I make.

Number 2

Only perhaps in orange to go with your national heritage (besides Orange and Blue are the colors of my alma mater).
