CGAN Caricatootles

nice! very recogniseable (can't recall his looks well enough to tell if it's very caricaturized, though...)

I hope I'll have the energy to start drawing and painting again soon. Today I've just slept all day (Had a migraine last night)

It's fairly subtle exaggeration rather than overtly stylised. It isn't finished yet though. Maybe a few years ago it would have been finished already, but now... Look at that *holds up hand*

Steady as a rock.

Yeah, but I draw with this hand *holds up shaky hand*

so one hand is hungry and the other has eaten? poor shaky hand

Neither of my hands have ever been steady.

That's a great Gene Wilder, the likeness and expression are spot on.
Much better than my pencil Prince...


At least it didn't take too long.

Had a bit more of a doodle while watching a film (and what a strange movie Noah is with Russell Crowe and those jerky stone men!)

Added some more subtle shading, as my ArtRage pencil stuff always ends up looking terribly flat, and I nudged the mouth down a bit to increase the gap beneath the nose.

I think it's a bit of an improvement but still not great.

I think it's very good actually.

Cheers, Banj.
Hindsight suggests that I should have expanded the canvas to exaggerate the hair more but it's the neck that is most bothersome to me. I initially wanted it pale but it just blended into the shirt, and now the more shaded version just looks a bit odd.

Anyhoo, in between a couple of abandoned failures I spent a few smeary minutes on one of Michael Jackson's many faces...



I also had a go at his younger, natural self but it ended up looking nothing like him at all!

If you crop the chin off it actually looks like Daisy Ridley

Poor Daisy...
