Saddam Hussein ~ A Caricature Study

Tonight I have a quick caricature study of Saddam Hussein. I know he's old news but I wasn't doing caricatures when he was in the news and I've wanted to caricature this image since. I think this was his best shot, next to the one of him hanging by a noose of course. Here is the original image I worked with. I'm posting early tonight because I've been fixing computer problems all day and I'm turning in early tonight.

I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Metallica ~ A Group Caricature

Tonight I Have for you a group caricature I did of one of my favorite bands, Metallica. I have had requests for Metallica so I decided to do all of them tonight. The original image is posted below for comparison and a video for your listening pleasure. "Nothing Else Matters (Live Earth, London, 2007) [HD]"

YouTube video of my Caricatures

This video is a compilation of photo-manipulated caricatures. I have been doing photo manipulations for FreakingNews.com since April 2010 but I just started experimenting with caricatures 6 months ago. I have put together about 85 of my caricatures in this video. I have done more but a lot of them are rough studies not suited for this project. It's 12.5 minutes long. I hope you like it.

I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

James Hetfield of Metallica

Tonight I have a caricatured manipulation of James Hetfield of Metallica. This was a requested caricature. I used two different images of Hetfield for this one. The image with this pose wasn't real clear so I used another head. It's still not as crisp and clean as I like my work to be but It was good practice.

Hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Lady Gaga ~ Two Caricature Studies

Tonight I did a couple of quick caricature studies of Lady Gaga. She's definitely not hard to caricature since she normally looks very abnormal to put it mildly. I think I made her too cute. She can be kind of disgusting at times. That's all for tonight but I should have something a little more interesting tomorrow.

I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Obamunism

Tonight I'm posting the finished piece from a study I posted a few days ago. This is a caricatured manipulation I entered in my 34th "Freak Show" Photoshop contest at FreakingNews.com. It took gold. The original body image was created by Sven Juhlin, a brilliant 3D artist.

I hope you enjoyed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
