Couple More from Last Week

Disney All-Star Resorts caricature stand work from last week. Thought the boy's drawing was cute, but poor likeness, and the girl's pic was good likeness, but in a weird way... I'm always surprised that any of us can get decent likeness when knocking these things out in 15 minutes (or less...)...

I like the plumpness in your lips.

Thanks, but what about the pictures I drew?!!

I'd watch some of the dialect you give yer background characters. Could end up offending someone.
Other than that solid stuff "yo"

Tim Gardner said...

Millions of people have southern accents and "dialect." That's EXACTLY how they talk, black and white and otherwise. Really, I was thinking of my cousins back in Texas. They're white with red necks. Another good source for diction and regional phonetics is Spielberg's The Color Purple, especially Oprah Winfrey's character Sofia.

I know that, and you know that. But it just takes one is all I'm trying to say bout dat.....

lol! You guys are so funny..
yeah.. I think that can be easily misinterpreted.

Tim Gardner said...

Hmm, everyone seems to agree with you guys. ...Yes, I suppose someone might be offended at some point. No, they shouldn't be.

Im stealing the star burst fromthe basketball kid shot!Still loving how you are still putting a priority on trying to "liven-up" your likenesses by attempting to capture "humor" & "personality", way ta go T zone.

Tim Gardner said...

Yeah, I've been using those star bursts all over the place lately. ...Is this weird?: I look at this girl, and I have no idea, now, WHY my drawing looks like the original girl/human.
But the likeness seems to me to be PERFECT. ...Or maybe I'm crazy... OK, I KNOW I'm crazy, just for the record, but one of these days I'll find the implant the government placed in me and everything will be okay... *whimper*whimper*

Tim Gardner said...

...BRAIN implant...lol

Esly Carrero said...

haha... silly.

I think the starbursts on the boy give it some real action... aside from the slam-dunking. The girl is dead on as mentioned before.

Reason: Didn't I tell you that likeness comes with time & practice? Duh! lol.
