Caricatures

[Lee.]

They're so good! :thumbs:

[Lewis.]

I love the second one - Don't know what Ant And Decs names are.. always get mixed up. It looks just like him though! And thanks :)

Their names are Ant and Dec. Hope that helps.





Seriously though this one is Anthony McPartlin. By default the other is Declan Donnelly, keep an eye on them, they could have a long and profitable career ahead of them.

[Lewis.]

I know who they are I can just never tell which one is ant and which is dec. I always vet mixed up. I tend to try and remember that ant is the taller one... which is ironic as he is "ant" and ants are small :L

[Lee.]

I saw Ant n Dec at Heathrow a few years ago and made a right ar$e of myself! Didn't act cool at all!

[setanta]

anyone else want me to do a caricature of them? I'm back in business here

[setanta]

Thanks Claudia. I'll have to shade them in and take a proper pic later. Did a few others too. It's good fun.

Ah, you responded. Excellent. Yeah, I couldn't resist the fag in the mouth... just rounded it off nicely. Just a bit of fun, that's all.

[30stone]

Yeah other than that it great :)

[setanta]

Thanks Ben. Was worrying that you might have been raging over it so I'm glad you like it. lol.

[Iceman]

Might get ya to do another one of me if u got time?

[setanta]

Ah yeah, I'll have another go at it Eoin.

[Shaun]

the JJ and Andrew ones are brilliant

[setanta]

the JJ and Andrew ones are brilliant

Thanks Shaun. I'll have to darken them a bit with shading and then take a proper photo.

[bansheewails]

Love JJ and Andrew, they're great. How about one of Josie, but put aside your misgivings about her!!!! BE nice! :D

[setanta]

Love JJ and Andrew, they're great. How about one of Josie, but put aside your misgivings about her!!!! BE nice! :D

Aww, do I have to? I'll try, I'll try.

[bansheewails]

Aww, do I have to? I'll try, I'll try.

As long as you try! :hugesmile:

[sooty]

I want to see Ben (BB11) with very Derren Brown style.

(I am glad at last 30stone spoke!)

[setanta]

(I am glad at last 30stone spoke!)

Sure he's a caricature as it is, but yeah, I'll have a go.

[sooty]

Sure he's a caricature as it is,
:hugesmile:
I can not wait !

[Miss Ivy Balls]

Omg. I want one Setanta. When you're back.

I thought I'd be able to over-power you with some of my drawings, but yours seem very good.

Maybe we'll have to have a drawing competition and get people to vote at who's the best.

[setanta]

Just some very quick sketches I did during the week.

[setanta]

http://i32.tinypic.com/34zwopl.jpg

Can't have a thread like this without old blue eyes. I'm so lazy though.... should really finish off these sketches but I was just messing about with them.

[Novo]

Who is the last one suppose to be?

[Novo]

I am guessing Dave

[setanta]

Ah no, it's not someone from Big Brother. It's Paul Newman.

[Novo]

Thought it didn't look anything like anyone from big brother, Corin and Ife were obvious

I thought exactly that too

[ange7]

Yeah happyland ... that's probably what setanta was going for then. Got JJ bang on then hehe.

[Lee.]

Not a JJ fan? I thought you were?

[ange7]

Not a JJ fan? I thought you were?
hehe yeah I am.
the scream is about isolation and helplessness ( to me anyway). So in that context (ie Josie is the sea) JJ is helplessly at the the whim of her massive victim complex.

[setanta]

That never actually occurred to me but yeah, I can see where your both coming from.

[Lee.]

Ah right.. I'm with you now :thumbs:

[sooty]

setanta, well come back.:amazed:

You have been already busy.:D

[setanta]

setanta, well come back.:amazed:

You have been already busy.:D

Thank you! Glad to be back.

Yep, been busy. Did a Ben one tonight but not sure how good it is. Might upload it later on.

[sooty]

Ben, yes please! :)

[setanta]

Ben, yes please! :)

It's not very good though.

[Lee.]

It's not very good though.

Aw, come on, don't be shy!

We want Ben! We want Ben!

[sooty]

Aw, come on, don't be shy!

We want Ben! We want Ben!


Singing all together now:hugesmile:

[setanta]

Lol, sorry Sooty; it's on it's way shortly. Just been busy over the last few days.

[sooty]

Ha ha
That is ok, setanta.

I hope Ben will be safe tomorrow. (I wish he smiles now and again. He is like my cat, never smiles. :hugesmile:)

[setanta]

http://i55.tinypic.com/209rp1u.jpg

I really need a digital cam or something cuz it's so hard to get any kind shot off a webcam when you're printing screen. Anyway, yeah, trying to do caricatures again for first time since I post on here and still struggling to break free from doing portraity kinda pics. I'll try to do more cartoony ones - hopefully!

[setanta]

http://i53.tinypic.com/107ufcm.jpg

I was doing this one and suddenly realized that I was just bored of them and left it.

[setanta]

http://i51.tinypic.com/21lnbwk.jpg

Not exaggerating them enough.

[Iceman]

http://i51.tinypic.com/21lnbwk.jpg

I love thsi one, I think you've got it spot on!

[setanta]

That was the last one I did today Eoin. The eye comes back as you practice more usually.

[Iceman]

It's really good man, I like hw you captured her lip like that, I thought I was the only one who noticed that!

[Shaun]

pmsl @ how accurate Cher's is

[Omen]

They're very good. You should charge ££

[setanta]

http://i54.tinypic.com/120othd.jpg

Not sure if that looks too much like him but again, trying to draw more freely.

[Jessica.]

fail

[setanta]

Nice.

[Miss Ivy Balls]

Very good.

[Zippy]

http://i54.tinypic.com/120othd.jpg

Great drawing. You need to be a bit crueler for true caricature though as youre too flattering!

[CaraRawr]

that cher one is amazing.

[setanta]

Great drawing. You need to be a bit crueler for true caricature though as youre too flattering!

I know, I know. I'm just a portrait artist so it's hard for me to exaggerate and not try to be as accurate as possible, you know that way? But yeah, I'll try going madder now with the rest of them.

[Crimson Dynamo]

that cher one is amazing.

steady

[setanta]

http://i52.tinypic.com/25zifpu.jpg

Trying to exaggerate them more but it's hard to keep them looking like the person in anyway. I'll try a few more tomorrow though.

[Lee.]

:shocked: That's a really good one!

[setanta]

It's just annoying Lee cuz I'm used to drawing in a certain way so it's a big challenge... but yeah, fun too.

[Jords]

I love the Cher one!

[Lee.]

Yeah,but they get better as you keep doing them!

[Iceman]

Thats a brilliant one, keep em coming man! (you still doing forum members?)

[setanta]

Just trying to do the X Factor ones right now cuz it gives me the chance to exaggerate a little more freely. It's mad how much easier it gets as you practice. Sure it's a fair few months since I did the other ones, right?

I'd love to be able to do stuff like that...I was only ever good in ART at like clay stuff.....mainly because I liked firing up the Killin (sp) thingy!

I might get you to do one of me next week if you have the time or whenever you do......need a new pic for my bald head haha

~Defo have a go at drawing you after I keep practicing on the X Factor crew for a little longer.

[Christina]

These are so amazing, i love them all!

[setanta]

Just looking them over now Sooty and they're all brilliant. I love the drawing skills in the first one... just a very confident way of sketching. Very minimal with only a few lines for shading.

My favourite would probably be C cuz it's outlandish but not harsh on the eye, you know? The fourth one is a bit too Spitting Image for me. Still great though.

How about you?

[setanta]

http://i56.tinypic.com/r03u6c.jpg

I drew that this evening for you Sooty cuz I knew my ban was going and you had been asking for that off me for so long. Hope it's alright.

[setanta]

http://i56.tinypic.com/2ymhvk8.jpg

And there's one of head the ball that I haven't bothered to finish yet.

Definitely C.

I like them to be really exaggerated.

(well come back, setanta.:D)

Thank you, setanta!
Yes, eyes and lips, this is Ben.:blush:

Setanta, you are too modest. You need more blatant, exaggerate.
Then if you do not feel comfortable, it is your choice, isn't it?

[setanta]

True, I'll have to go even more crazy with them.

[setanta]

Just doing a few doodles again.

[GiRTh]

Who is it?

[setanta]

Dexter.

[Iceman]

Dexter.

Who's Dexter? I'm so out of the loop with things?

[setanta]

American show I've started to watch about the forensic expert who moonlights as a serial killer.

[GiRTh]

I knew who it was I was only messing.

[Iceman]

LOL souns like something I could get into....has it been airing long? (I need that something to fill the LOST void.....still looking)

[setanta]

It's on it's fifth season. I'm enjoying it.

[GiRTh]

Do one of Davina.

[Iceman]

It's on it's fifth season. I'm enjoying it.

Oh i must check it out next time im in town, see if I can find a boxset....

[setanta]

These are really good, I love that Ben one.

Do you draw for a living or is it just a hobby?

[setanta]

I paint for a living, when I can! lol. But yeah, caricatures are just a bit of fun for me.... just trying to gain a style and speed, you know?

[Niamh.]

It's on it's fifth season. I'm enjoying it.

aw, glad you took my advice then:hugesmile:

[Josy]

I paint for a living, when I can! lol. But yeah, caricatures are just a bit of fun for me.... just trying to gain a style and speed, you know?

I would love to be able to paint or draw like that, my brother paints murals and stuff, the furthest I have ever got is doodling though :hugesmile: your Ben one looks perfect to me, im not keen on the really over exaggerated ones you see sometimes.

[setanta]

aw, glad you took my advice then:hugesmile:

?

Yeah, you have to strike a nice balance. I don't like when they go too spitting image... bit harsh to look at.

I'd love to see your brother's stuff.

[Niamh.]

?

remember how I asked you did you ever watch Dexter and you said no? and I said it was my favourite show and you should? well I just assumed that you had taken my advice:hugesmile:

[Josy]

I will try and get a hold of some pics of the murals he's done.

[setanta]

remember how I asked you did you ever watch Dexter and you said no? and I said it was my favourite show and you should? well I just assumed that you had taken my advice:hugesmile:

God, I have absolutely no memory of that whatsoever.

[setanta]

Please do. Really interested to see anything creative. Sure you're creativetoo with your design stuff, right?

[Iceman]

I have my nephew drawing f1 cars (merc/schumi of course) he's getting really good, great at freehand.

[Niamh.]

God, I have absolutely no memory of that whatsoever.

really, well it must have stuck some where sub consciously then anyway, no matter Dexter is a the best TV programme ever so glad I could be of service in spreading the word:D

[setanta]

It didn't, it's not and you weren't. But yeah, enjoyable enough.

suuuuuuuuuuuuuuure:wink: I'm flattered though, thanks.

Yep, just looked outside and it's a full moon.
