Click here to be insulted!

edited October 2010 in General Chat
I'm trying to practise caricatures (as in exaggerated cartoony drawings of people), but I don't know who to draw. I thought it would be a good idea to come here and ask for volunteers :D

If you don't mind me pointing out certain odd features of your face, post a picture here and I'll draw it (or, if you've already posted one in the "what do you look like" thread, just give me permission to draw that :D)

Just remember that I'm practising so these drawings aren't going to be too great :p And also, nobody can avoid looking ugly on a caricature so don't feel too insulted ^_^

    Sure, you can draw me as much as you want. I posted pictures of me a bit everywhere, including some where you can see my face!
    Are you expecting critique of your caricatures, too? (I'm guessing not from the people portrayed as they would be biased :p)
    Good luck with your practice.

    bah, go ahead. A caricature of me can't look that different
  • edited June 2010
    I'll draw Remolay first since his picture is easiest to find >.>

    And critique would be appreciated, Avistew :P

    Haha feel free to search for posts made by me that have the word "falafels" in it. Or perhaps "picnic". I posted lots of pics in that one post.

    And sure, I'll do my best. May I suggest you link to pictures when you post your caricatures though, so people can compare it better?

    I'll do yours soon, Avi, provided my pen doesn't run out D:

    Mmh... I know they often exaggerate the nose in caricatures, but I would have given Remolay a small nose I think. And I'd have exaggerated the expression, like with the eyebrows going / \ and giving him kinda sad eyes, or something. But that all might be very subjective.

    Good luck with mine ^_^

    One thing you obviously didn't notice from the picture, I have a unibrow.

    I think you kinda made me look like Roy from the IT Crowd.

    Maybe it's the headphones masking it, but you look like you have less of a unibrow than I do.

    look closer, you'll see it. It is not very much there, but it is still visible

    I'm not saying it's not there at all, I'm saying mine seems more pronounced to me :p
  • edited June 2010
    I didn't notice your monobrow, Remolay, but I don't think it's significant enough to have put in there anyway :p

    Thanks for the comments, Avi... would you mind posting a picture? My computer is going all laggy and I don't have time to sift through all the pages in that other thread (:

    I might not get round to doing it tonight now though, because I've got work to do :(

    Why not. Never had a caricature made of me, it'll probably look better that I really do! There should be a photo in the 'what do you look like' thread.

    Actually, looking at the photo I put up on that thread, I could do with getting a more recent one as I've had my hair cut since then. And besides, it's a crappy mobile phone camera photo anyway. I'll put up a new photo tomorrow probably.

    :D silverwolfpet. You're alright man. I'm not asking for one. Besides you don't know what I look like.
  • edited June 2010
    silverwolfpet isn't just alright, he's made of win! :) But I think he already knows that.

    Hmmmm I looked up that name, and am still somewhat confused. If you're wondering if I'm him, than no, I'm not. :o

    You seem to look like a different person every time you post of pic of yourself. :eek:
  • edited June 2010
    I've gone through more styles than anyone else I know. The only thing I haven't done is...go bald. Yet. Or a mohawk. I just looked through a bunch of my profile pictures on Facebook, and come to think of it, none of them really do look the same. O_o

    Lol I went through a lot of styles when I was your age too. :) [oddly I always thought you were in your 30's or 40's for some reason until I clicked on your name one day.]

    edit: I've been bald once or twice, it's fun waiting for it to grow back. :D

    I went bald when my Step Mother had cancer and lost her hair.

    Nope, not an old fogey yet. Good ol nineteen. Hahaha. I'd like to see a picture of you bald. I bet you'd look like Lex Luthor. Funny enough, I felt bald the first time I had really long hair then got it cut short again!

    @Irishmile-

    :( Had?

    Ahhh I did the long hair thing in middle school :D and I think I look weird bald so I never took pictures, it was more about serving a purpose when I did it rather than for style. [I've never been in the any military either, basically couldn't afford a hair cut... :\]

    At first I though you had lost it out of empathy (hey, it happens!) but now I'm realising, you probably mean you shaved it to show support or something?
  • edited June 2010
    yeah i shaved it luckily for me it looks like my hair might stick around for my 30's but its definitely going gray but i do not mind that maybe it's a little conceded but i do not think it looks bad on me
  • edited June 2010
    Irishmile, your caricature is done. It's kinda neater this time because I have a better pen (a sharpie, in fact). As a side effect, though, I'm... kinda dizzy.
