Who in Maiden looks like Eddie

I know this may seem strange but here me out.  The Rolling Stones symbol with the lips is based on Jager.

Everytime I look at Eddie.  I always feel his physical look is like a Gouhled out version of Dave Murray. 

So does anyone think that Eddie looks like Dave Murray coming back from the dead.

The Rolling Stones' logo is a tongue hanging out of an open mouth. While there are lips in the picture, the tongue is far more prominent. And this is the first time I've heard any allegation that the logo is in any way based on Mick Jagger (note the two g's in that name, not one). Cite a source for that or I call bullshit.

Furthermore, the Stones' logo was created by Andy Warhol. Warhol also created the cover for the first Velvet Underground album; that was a picture of a banana. Would you say any of the Velvets looked like a banana?

The origin of Eddie is well-known, and there is no intended resemblance to any member of Iron Maiden. And I'd say there is no unintended resemblance, either.

In fact, Maiden chose to use Eddie on all the covers partially because they didn't want the usual band photos there. So if there had been any accidental resemblance to a band member, Maiden would likely have told Riggs (or any other artist) to change Eddie and make him not look like the band.
 
I could see how you could think that Eddie looks like Dave...the original Eddie on the first album cover anyway.
 
When i first saw maiden (At Rock in Rio show, 2001) i was pretty sure that Eddie was based on Nicko's face! :P Even now i think they resemble.

:yey:

I think Dave Murrays face is too soft to look like Eddie. Some of Daves earlier pics display a cute baby face!

Prance :bigsmile:
 
im gonna say steve but  they took elements from wilcocks performance for the original eddie
 
My wife and I were watching Death on the Road the other day, and I noticed that the Eddie on the Killers/Number of the Beast covers looks a lot like Janick.  She smiled and laughed.  Good times.
 
Well this one at least is clearly based on Steve.

After watching Death On The Road Steve has some pretty hideous facial expression so I came to the conclusion Steve= Eddie.
