Caricature

UPDATE!


------------------------------------------------------------------



I've been struggling to make a caricature of these two. I started by the girl that I found the easiest to accomplish, but I was wrong, so I started again making an analysis first.

I trace her head and I realize some things:
- The right side of the head is smaller than the left.
- There's a great space behind the eyes to the back of the head on the left side.
- Her left cheek is bigger than her right
- the shape from the right side of her head is like an arc, soft.
- She have very soft lines.
- The right eye is smaller than the left.
- She have big eyes and in the picture they are open, but the upper eyelid falls over the pupil.
- It forms an interesting shape between the eyes and the brows.

-The nose it's a difficult part. She have large nose and big at the point. fleshy

This is my best attempy so far. She's really difficult!
I don't know how to escape from reality, it still look realistic.
Should I emphasize more contrast?
Her nose it's also hard to make. If I make it too big she looks like a Drag Queen.
somebody could give me some help?
Where's everybody?

  1. I think you're overanalyzing it a bit! Maybe relax and do some loose fun doodles of them.

  4. wow! you did the nose with just a few lines! and it look really good!

    I would make her face a little more large.

    The guy is perfect!

    Ok, I'm going to relax and make fun of her.
    I will post the result soon

    Many Many Thanks KALI!

  5. You've improved your observations quite a bit. These caricatures don't look like Preston Blair structures-they look like the humans you are looking at.

    That's good
