Lazy caricature

This girl was funny, always stretching her lips out and adjusting her face, like she was afraid still that her mouth would get stuck in one expression if she held it long enough. Or maybe it's that super-self-conscious model mindset. Either way, it was hard to do her face.


I generally hate the big-head-small-body type of caricature, and that's how this one ended up looking, so boo to me. I fuzzed out the terrible body I did though, so at least you don't have to deal with that part.

I know it sounds weird but the blurring out feels like she was completely naked and you are editing something out. But it is a great drawing all the same

As jed say, beautiful faces are harder to do, and I agree about hating the big head+small body kind of caricatures. But you know how to avoid that, and the drawing is great and strong, congratz.
