Default Which Covers of the AROBTTH singles represent who?

I just read that each single cover represents a member from the band, which ones represent each member?

According to Wikipedia.

In My Place

"The single cover features guitarist Jon Buckland, drawn by Solve Sundsbo."

Clocks

"The single cover depicts singer Chris Martin with his hands placed on his head. The drawing perspective is looking up from his ribcage. The cover was created by Solve Sundsbo."

The Scientist

"The single cover features drummer Will Champion, drawn by Solve Sundsbo."

God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

"The single cover features bassist Guy Berryman, drawn by Solve Sundsbo."

They are some sort of 3D representations which have been skewed in various places. I'm not sure how he did it, but they look cool. It should be obvious that he also created the art for the album A Rush of Blood to the Head.

i would say...you are good!
will, the scientist! i would have never guessed!

although! it might be one of my top 3 songs on the album...and its the song that i would have picked from the begining to be a single. me and MR. champion share a lot of similarities...so.....

Chris was also the easiest for me. Once you know that it's looking up from below his ribcage, it's quite easy to tell who it is.
