Snake Serum

George Michael

A quick caricature of George Michael. Quick for me is less than an hour, maybe for some it would be like 30 minutes or something. but for this kind of illustration, it would usually take me an hour if i wanted to put more details. But when i did this, it had to be in a rush because i wanted to go home and it was already late in the office. This caricature went really well for me. For something so rush this was really good. :)

Here's George in ink.

Here's George rendered in photoshop.

George Michael's details.

Spot the Freakin' Difference!

Yes i am vain. I love being the subject of the camera's attention. They call it narcissism but i just know that i love myself and i think i am beautiful (bahala ng uban tawo moingun nga feeling gwapa ko, they're just FAT and ugly). :p KAHIBAW KA KINSA KANG YAWAA KA!

*nuffsed*

Here is what i usuaLly do with my pic before i upload them online. They all go through the beautiful process of photoshop. hehe In there i can be my own maker of my prettier self. I can get rid of those unnecessary shadows, highlights, flabs and ugly marks.

I think the major issue in this photo is the mass of fats on my lower left neck that gave to much weight on my face. Had to get rid of it. Had to smothen that rough face too. Then highlights on the eyes. But im not too haapy with the dress (chest part), its dirty.
