Caricature swap...

Posted: Sunday, September 21, 2008
...So i was talkim to my dude steffan (aka mstrpln) on the ol' AIM last week and we decided to do a caricature exchange. Seeing as how we were both bored artists at the time. I sent him a pic, he sent me one, and it was on. It was interesting to see our different takes on it. Mine was more traditional as far as caricatures go, and his was pretty much not a caricature at all. But it came out pretty damn awesome if you ask me. So below are the results.

The pic i sent him:



The pic he sent back:



And heres the drawing i did for him in return:




Im not completely thrilled with how mine came out, but im ok with it, seeing as how i decided to crosshatch the shading, which i havent done in years, and was never really good at in the first place. Plus i screwed up the shape of his chin, but i used a pen, so there was no fixing it. Oh well.

If anyone out there is reading this and fancies themselves an artist, hit me up and maybe we can do an exchange too.

    Nice.

    On a side note, I saw Common and N*E*R*D the other night... Common did Universal Mind Control and it was NUTS in person. He also did a freestyle at the end which was incredible (he threw in local references, such as Eugene, U of O, the Ducks and so on).

    Sounds like a hell of a show.

    If you got a link to Universal Mind Control in its entirety, let me know. Ive only heard the snippet.

    What's up man. I have been reading your blog for a while now (found it through the link in your sig on NikeTalk). Anyway, I am not sure if you have heard about this contest but after seeing your LRG entries I am sure you could kill it. http://attic2zoo.com/wordpress/?p=739

    By the way, I have no affiliation with either company, I just like to see your work on stuff like this.
