Wow…
… following the most highly participated poll on SE23.life so far - the votes from the 1st round of voting on the design for the proposed Forest Hill mural are in and much love has been given for ‘a touch of walrus’!!
[Poll] Forest Hill Mural - Choose a Design (Round 1)
(the above snapshot was taken on 1st Jan 2018)
With that decided, all that’s left now is the tricky question of orientation and colour for the traditional part of the design
To help answer this, we’re offering up two separate polls for you to vote on before finalising the ’touch of walrus’ design - one each for a proposed Style and Orientation variant.

Summary of options
The following colour options were taken from the original ‘traditional’ submission from @Lionel with the orientation options from the ‘touch of walrus’ amendment submitted by @armadillo.
Notes
Some people have questioned if we have agreement from @Lionel (the artist) to adapt his traditional design, and how he would interpret the amended brief of adding ‘a touch of Walrus’.
Well obviously, we obtained his agreement before including the variants in the original vote, and he was then good enough to provide the following clarification, along with a rather better mock-up than mine;
To cover off any concerns around incorporating such an obvious reference to the @HornimanMuseum - we’ve not explicitly asked them about our mural aspirations, but they did declare themselves for #TeamWalrus on Twitter - so we’re going to assume that they’re broadly supportive as well
Voting closes on 07-Jan-2018, after which the final design will be submitted for crowdfunding.
Remember, if you make a mistake or simply change your mind, you can amend your vote by clicking the ‘Hide Results’ option at the bottom of the poll, and reselecting your option.
