Have you seen the quote of Paul talking about George's brother? Honestly I think that Paul had a crush on all of George's family.

Yes! George's older brother, who was "made a man" in the army, right? Thereby deeply impressing young Paul. I can see the Harrison family being attractive to Paul for a number of reasons: two parents, father a bus driver (thanks for the reminder, @pauls1967moustache), attractive older siblings...

I know we often joke about Paul stretching the age difference between himself and George, making George the same age as Paul's younger brother, Mike. But I wonder if part of Paul also saw the advantages of being the youngest in the house, and longed for it occasionally.

For no other reason than it's a beautiful picture: Here are George, his sister Louise, and his brother Peter, and Louise's daughter Leslie. George and Peter are visiting their sister in Illinois. (1963.)

George’s first American visit, part 2 —

“When the trio [George, his brother Peter, and sister Lou] arrived, they were informed that Marcia [Raubach] had already gone home for the day. At the station were Art Smith, an advertising salesman, and Joe Browning, the weekend announcer. Smith remembers George Harrison as being ‘a very nice fellow,’ and Browning agreed. But Browning added, ‘I thought he needed to get a haircut.’ […] When [Marcia] arrived [back] at the station, [she] recalls, [George] was very excited about the car she was driving. It was her father’s black 1959 Oldsmobile Delta 88 with tail fins. ‘He really looked it over; he asked me if it was my car,’ she said. ‘I told him no, but he was really impressed with it. He was impressed with a lot of things.’ Marcia recalls [George] as being ‘very, very clean cut,’ wearing a white shirt, jeans and brown sandals. […] Raubach said she found the young British musician to be ‘really soft-spoken and almost hesitant to ask me questions.’” - Before He Was Fab: George Harrison’s First American Visit (2000) “George told Marcia that he was an apprentice electrician, but that the Beatles were really taking off back home. ‘He really liked my dad’s Oldsmobile Delta 88,’ Marcia recalls. On her radio show that day she played ‘From Me To You’ and ‘She Loves You,’ but it’s her recollection that the songs made little impression on her listening audience. George gave her a copy of ‘She Loves You,’ which she keeps in a safe deposit box at the bank. ‘I wish I’d have asked him to autograph it,’ she says. Marilyn Lewis, who also interviewed George, for the Echo, the Benton Community High School newspaper, says she did it ‘mainly as a favor to Louise.’ […] George told her that so many fans mobbed his band at one appearance that they had to be smuggled into the venue in a garbage truck, but Marilyn wasn’t overly impressed. Was he cute? ‘Heavens, no,’ the now-retired Ohio teacher says. ‘He looked kind of pitiful.’” - Smithsonian Magazine Please note: You can find photos taken during this vacation featured in Living In The Material World.

Peter!

This has been an interesting series. I think all in all they look sort of uncanny, probably partly due to somewhat more realistic facial shading combined with big anime eyes. But it was fun to do.

My other main takeaway is that oh god I need to stop drawing them from the front, everything is harder from the front.

“As polite a fellow as you could ever meet. That was the first thing that struck you about him. He was real humble and didn’t like talking about himself much. Everybody around town liked him.” - Gabe McCarty, USA Today, February 10, 2014 In August 1964, when The Beatles played a concert in Chicago, McCarty attended and was invited by George to meet up at the hotel. “‘I remember him asking me if I had done any recording yet,’ McCarty said. ‘I guess the thought that was important to me.’ Harrison then asked his guests [McCarty, and George’s sister Lou] if they would like to have something to eat or drink, and a cart ‘with enough food and drinks for a hundred people’ was later wheeled into the room, McCarty said. […] When the two departed, McCarty remembers shaking Harrison’s hand and giving him a hug. ‘I told him to take care, and that was the last time I would ever see him,’ McCarty said.” - Before He Was Fab: George Harrison’s First American Visit (2000) (x) Please note: You can find photos taken during George and Peter’s trip in the book indispensable Living In The Material World.

PMD Peter. Our one quadruped! Which is because Peter is the morph who most smoothly just passes for regular human, which made my brain find it appropriate for him to be the least anthropomorphic in a world where they're all just Pokémon. He's generally enthusiastic and energetic with a kind of doggy disposition, so it felt like it fit. And of course, he's made of rock, so fat chance those wings could ever lift him even if they're not quite as proportionally puny as on a human.

I waffled a bit about whether he should have the 'hood' of feathers, went with it for the head patterning but it does undermine his nearly-normal appearance a bit.

He still can't move his wings, they're just like that.
