Rent Textbooks & Binky Caricatures

Third and fourth winners of my 500th post caricature contest are up today.  First is the loveable Binky from Peter Marinacci’s Wombania.   Peter was too shy for a caricature so he asked the rocket and chocolate loving Binky to stand in for him.

Next up is the person that many thought was a spammer.  I mean who goes by the name “Rent Textbooks“.  Somehow I realized her comments were just a little smarter than a typical spammer so I kept her from the dump pile.  It has paid off and now not only is she a regular commenter but she is allowing me to out her publicly on my site.  First up is the caricature:

And the real her (in case you were wondering):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It didn’t help my cause that she sent me three completely different looks. ha   She said she was a big fan of the water and the beach thus the setting.

Some final good news.  So many times you see great bloggers and cartoonists give up the web for other things.  One of them was one of the first followers of Beartoons, Brogan from Artic Blast Comic.  Well I am happy to say he is back.  The site url is the same but the name is changed to Inkee Doodles Studios.  Go show him some love.

Lisleman Caricature

So next up as Caricature winner in my 500th Post contest is Lisleman from A Few Clowns Short Blog.  Now before you wonder where the glasses come from, look below at what he sent me.  And the clown suit…well isn’t it fitting to his blog name?

 

 

 

 

 

Part of his response was:

The only odd thing my daughter noticed was how thin I appear. However, don’t change that.

Well here I go and try to flatter someone after Myra called me out and this is the response I get.  So Bill, just for your daughter.

Nurse Myra Caricature

So the first caricature winner victim, is Nurse Myra from Gimcrack Hospital.   Myra is not a real nurse (so I think) and Gimcrack is not a real Hospital.  Instead Myra searches the web to find you incredible stories of medicine, murder and mischief.   Remember when I said NOT to have expectations too high with my caricatures.  I literally laughed out loud after sending the caricature to Myra and getting this response.

Hey that’s pretty good! Not flattering but it’s a definite likeness.

Myra, you want to talk not flattering…check out my first caricature of Brit.
