Character design & caricature


Recently I came across a few blogs of extremely talented artists named Ken coogan, Chris Kennett, Gabby Zapata, Michael Amos, and the list goes on......... I must say that their work is so amazing that I don't know how to describe, its better to see yourself. Any ways from thereon I got interested in character design and caricature. Initially it was difficult and I wasn’t getting what I had in mind so I tried to copy other artist's work and then I tried to create my own. And I guess I am getting better now.


This picture is my first attempt which I copied from Chris Kennett's Gabby girl. I named her lola. Hope I did justice to the original character.

This sketch is also a copied version of Chris Kennett's muscular muse

 It's my first creation and Gabby girl was the inspiration for shy lola....... thats what I named her.




This is my dad's caricature. In case your thinking that my dad was posing like this for me then I should tell you that he wasn't, I did so just to make it look funnier.
