Jerry Seinfeld Portrait

I had an inkling to do a portrait of someone...that someone ended up being Jerry Seinfeld.

Why not huh?  I pushed pretty hard in the detail and it's come up pretty well.

Portrait Update

Just an update of a self portrait I started last year.  My wife said I looked like a serial killer...

WIP

Here's a portrait WIP, got a great reference so pushing pretty hard on the detail.

Michael Jordan for Caricaturama 3000

I started with a very rough sketch to save time - which I didn't have much of..

 

Next I started blocking in. I wanted this to be a caricature using shadow to form the features, and because Jordan is so recognisable it was my goal to use as little detail as possible.

Here I'm refining the features in the face.

 Starting to block in the jersey, not being too precious about it and keeping it loose.

 The level of detail is where I want it, but it needs to look a bit looser still.

 So I add some retrospective arty-fartyness.

Shark!

Here's a shark (grey nurse to be precise).  Just a portfolio piece, process below.
