Your thoughts, requested.

Hello, critique friends!  I know this site has been silent for a while (and so have I) but I could really use some fresh eyes and minds.  I'd like to use these three illustrations for a promotional piece to send to art directors.  A few questions:

1) I've only ever sent normal-sized, normal-shaped postcards.  My initial thought is to just line these up (similar to above) on one postcards, maybe an oversized one.  But I wonder if the fact that there are three images might lend itself to something more creative.  Any thoughts?  Have any of you done (or seen) promotional mailings that were something other than a plain postcard? 

2) Is it distracting that the first two drawings have less-than-accurate horizon lines?  Does that bother anyone?  Should I got back in and fix that?  Or is it okay as is?

3) Do they work--individually and collectively-- well enough to be used promotionally?

I'd love to hear your thoughts!  Thanks, everyone!
