Repeat Business [3]

TODAY'S ITEM is the fourth---and last, to date--------customized tailored caricature job I got offered by a kindly gent who liked my stuff enough to ask me back a few times.

Great fun as usual and again I liked to do it in  fairly elaborate technique-style.


Also contained below:


not-quite-finished artwork [complete with image underneath burning through] , the original rough sketch required to 'sell' the proposal, and other miscellanea.

Enjoi!

Pretties For You [Too]

MORE SHAMELESS filling-up-of-space, however I love showing all these seperate drawing elements in isolation.

'no outright copying of established characters ' but I had to put over the basic ambience for them. Great fun, though clearly, this one took a fair bit of time to put together.

OfficeToons in Continium

THESE TYPES OF WORKS turn up relatively frequently: office workers in search of one-off graphics required to illustrate their talks to the group. I often use these opportunities to capitalize upon my tastes for drawing female characters: I must have drawn thousands of pro-level ladies in my time, I never tire of this subject especially. These items had to be knocked out quickly, I recall, but the buyer seemed pleased with the results. MORE OT THESE LATER, they crop up a fair bit RAB L RAUSER
