Lindsay and Tony Caricature

Lindsay was the winner of my Facebook caricature contest.  She didn’t make it easy, sending me four different pictures that show she changes her hair color more than Duncan changes his underwear.  But here is my result (including one of the original pics)

 I asked Lindsay what she liked to do and besides hanging with her kids, she said drink wine and procrastinate…thus the name on the wine.

And just because I had some time last week, I went and caricatured a Beartoons regular, Tony McGurk (sans the beard in the pic because usually he is more manscaped than this).  Check out Tony’s own cartoon stylings at TMComics.

    Dammit, your blog is confusing the hell out of me B’man. I posted this comment on the wrong thread earlier. I said– I’m bummin’, you forgot the tiara! These things are important to chicks. Good job…

      I can’t help it you don’t know where you are.

      yeah I noticed the lack of tiaras too

      1. Bearman Avatar

        Not everyone can take your princess status.

            Forget it Loon, it’s no use. 🙁

    Very nice, Bearman! ProcrastiNATE would be a good name for a wine for me.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I thought cheap would be a better one for you.

      1. Nate Fakes Avatar

        ProcrastiNATE in the discount isle

      Thanks Sandee. He’s not so bad is he?

  5. Tony McGurk Avatar

    Great job on both Bearman. Love the name of the bottle of wine. A big thanks for doing mine too it was a great surprise…

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I didn’t tell everyone how much you whined after losing. hah

      1. Tony McGurk Avatar

        Whining often works for me

        1. Binky Avatar

          Now we know your secret!

    Both are fantastic. Tony actually looks larger than his Gravatar.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      He is larger than life.

      1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        I’ve always wonderered how large is life. I’ve been livin’ large for a long time.

      2. Tony McGurk Avatar

        I’ve actually lost nearly 10 kilos over the past few months so I’m not quite as larger than life as I was before

        1. Bearman Avatar

          What is that in lbs??

          1. Binky Avatar

            Multiply by 2.2. So that’s, ummm, well over, let’s see, umm carry the 6 and add 7, ummm…you figure it out.

          2. Bearman Avatar

            Oh that is more than I thought. I figured it was 4 lbs

          3. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

            I didn’t know there would be Math. I didn’t study.

  7. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

    Awesome work on both pieces, Bearman!
    I’m not a big wine guy, but that vintage does sound very appealing…
    🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      The fact that you know the word “vintage” makes you a wine guy

      1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        Yeah… but at least not a Wino.

      2. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

        I was going to say something about the wonderful ‘earthy tones’ of the ’78 Pro Crasti Nation, but that seemed like it might have been going a bit too far.
        🙂

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Given your recent post, I would say you know earthy.

          1. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

            HA!
            Do I have any dirt stuck in my teeth?!

  8. Blunt Delivery Avatar

    you had some FREE TIME?!?! and it didn’t occur to you once to make my caricature that i’ve been whining for like 5 years for?

    this. is. unforgivable.

  9. Friggin Loon Avatar

    Lindsay lost her tiara and Tony lost the hair on top of his head! Sheez Bearman, how come you didn’t forget Duncan’s kilt? Then we all would have had a good laugh 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      This is a family site…well not family but not wretching either.

  10. DadaHyena Avatar

    They look so HAPPEEEEEE.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I wanted people to see Tony smiling.

        1. Tony McGurk Avatar

          Yes I did come out very pink. Must be the lack of sun here in Tasmania

          1. Bearman Avatar

            I thought you needed some color. And the lighter shade didn’t show off the glare from your forehead as well.

  11. Nef Avatar

    This is cool for the winner and the whiner. Just kidding, Tony. Maybe I’ll try my hand at caricaturing people too. After all, Ever since I started my webcomic, all I’ve done is steal other people’s ideas.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      You should…can you start with the whiners here who haven’t gotten a caricature yet.

  12. MJ Avatar

    Ha! Good stuff. I personally don’t like doing caricatures at the cons live in person, but get asked to do them often. Have you ever done these in a live setting?

    1. Bearman Avatar

      No way. I have to throw out the first 20 renditions before getting to something useful.

  13. rent textbooks Avatar

    Nice job! Congrats to the winners!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Next time you should enter..haha

      1. rent textbooks Avatar

        I will but under my real name, I need a character for my personal blog, hehe. Work consumes me too much sometimes and leaves other things on the back burner

        1. Bearman Avatar

          yes..we are still waiting for that incredible designer to do your bidding..haha

          1. rent textbooks Avatar

            You have the memory of an elephant! I have no clue whats going on with the designer anymore I handed that off to someone else, I have better things to do than deal with that mess. I knew I should have paid more attention in Digital Graphics class.

          2. Bearman Avatar

            Usually I have the memory of a flea but I’ll be sure to use that line then next time my wife reminds me I was supposed to do something.

  14. lisleman Avatar

    Good work – have you ever done this stuff at a fair? I had one done of me years ago (should find it and scan it).
    Oh another question – do you hand draw it and then scan it or draw on a computer pad?
    I saw a FB ad for some site (view something?) that pays for post and cartoon submissions. I thought you should on it. Sorry I don’t recall the name.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Never done this live (except my wife who says my rendition of her sucks).

      I do everything in the computer except when I really am stuck. Then I’ll print out the pics and go to the couch and pull out a pad and draw away until I get what I want.

      Great…you could make me a million dollars but you forgot where.

    I always knew Tony had beedy little eyes.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      shhhh…he doesn’t know.

          Must be true, cause he can’t even read the comments 🙂

  16. Sheila Deeth Avatar

    Cool caricatures. Wish you’d done on of a dog as well… or a bear… or a dog with a bear. Wish I’d been here sooner–think I’ve been sipping from that “procrastination” bottle. Got a nice pic of a dog and his teddy bear I’d’ve sent you.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I have never tried doing an animal…maybe….

      Thanks Mark

    Excellent job! I’m sure they’re thrilled.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I don’t know about that but I am thrilled they are done.

  21. Cedric the Rat Avatar

    Hey How come Drawing Bloke & Barry got a carrykatchor & I was left out??? Whine, whine, whine…

    1. Bearman Avatar

      You were too heavy for Tony to lift. Might want to slow down on eating all that moon cheese.

  22. Binky Avatar

    Maybe next year you could caricatures for charity or something as you seem to have a knack for them.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      At this pace I may not have any regulars I haven’t done

  23. Frank M Hansen Avatar

    I think students should be allowed to have caricatures of themselves used in their yearbooks and you could create them OR making avatars for people. I wonder if there is any money in that. Hmmmm.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I bet there is. I am just too lazy to set up all the tax paperwork to start legitimately charging

  24. planetross Avatar

    Very cool caricature of Tony and Barry … or is it Cedric.

    note: I usually look the same in caricatures as photos … except more animated.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      In which version???

    2. Cedric the Rat Avatar

      No it’s Barry. I didn’t get included in it, *&$#@$%$&^#@&$#…

      1. Bearman Avatar

        I tried to draw you but you kept blocking the view of Tony.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      So far four people have been using their caricatures as their facebook avatar. I am well on my way to take over that whole damn company.

      1. Barry the Rat Avatar

        You could even change the name to Bearbook

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Ooooh Good idea.

  25. Goeber Avatar

    Great caricatures. 🙂

  26. MC/Curtis Avatar

    Those are great!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thank you sir

  27. GrammyMouseTails Avatar

    I had to ‘pop’ over & say how much I like Tony’s new characature. And Barry even got in on the deal! Not bad for a whinner 😉 I like his new slimming version (Tony’s, not Barry, maybe Cedric could get an overhaul… after he is out of moon cheese that is) Great Job on the original winner Lindsey as well. I think you beed to tm & bottle this wine. Than all us procrastinators would have a reason to shlep off, too much wine.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks Grammy. Should Tony take offense at the fact that you think he is fat in real life?? haha j/k.

      The problem with bottling that wine is that none of you have the energy to go out and buy it.

  28. Scott Avatar

    Good caricatures–should have made Lindsay’s breasts larger, though!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I am not touching that comment…haha
