Well, now that's a conundrum. More options to choose from. I'm going to ignore the plain one in my comparisons because you are trying to figure out a good possible paint scheme.

With the choices you have there, I like elements of all three painted mugs, on the fronts the highlighted lettering of "Hawaiian Hut" on #2, the blue background on #3, and just the wahine painted on #4 (with or without lei makes no difference). As for the back I think the color scheme on #2 is best, the only changes I'd suggest is a heavier paint job on the trees and paint the walls of the hut too, with maybe going a more golden yellow on the hut to contrast a bit more with the tree trunks. There's yellow specks in the glaze too so it shouldn't clash.

So if it is to be painted, my vote is front = a combo of #2, #3, & #4 as described, and back = #2 as described.

I know... You must hate me now.
