Lisleman Caricature

Bearman Cartoons Caricature of Lisleman

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?

Lisleman from A few Clowns Short blog

 

 

 

 

 

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.

    Hahahaha, great glasses! and love the clown suit 🙂 I like the drumsticks too!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      His other drumstick is hidden in the other hand.

      1. lisleman Avatar

        heh I only like the white meat

        1. Bearman Avatar

          You will eat that drumstick and like it

      2. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        A well balanced diet is a drumstick in each hand.

    Awesome work (as always), Bearman!
    Now… do you have any extra turkey legs laying around this joint?!
    🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I think Lisleman ate them all… 🙁

      1. SpilledInkGuy Avatar

        Guess I’ll have to bring my own, next time.
        BYOT!
        🙂

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Bring the beer too.

          1. Binky Avatar

            And the chocolate.

    Great! I like the hair shading and the sunglasses reflection. Plus it looks like him!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      That’s always the first question to ask.

  4. Jillsy Girl Avatar

    I LOVE the first one!! 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I am sure he isn’t going to be a fan of the second when he sees it.

    2. lisleman Avatar

      thanks Jillsy I owe you one

  5. Tony McGurk Avatar

    Ha Ha These are great. An extremely good likeness. I agree with previous comments about the sunglasses reflection. It looks so realistic. I guess the 2nd one is more realistic. The drumstick doesn’t look like it has the Colonel’s 11 secret herbs & spices coating though.

      I think he is cheap and goes to Kenny Rogers Roasters. Are there still any Kenny Rogers Roasters around…last one I saw was in Greece.

      1. lisleman Avatar

        actually my favorite chicken place is Popeyes

        1. Bearman Avatar

          That would have been my second guess

      2. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        We used to have one in Jackson, MS but it closed. They all must be out of business. If you can’t sell chicken in MS, you can’t sell chicken.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Better than a dog leg huh?

  6. Comedy Plus Avatar

    Great job. You do caricatures very very well.

    Have a terrific day. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks Sandee.

  7. nursemyra Avatar

    I like the first one – and he looks like the colourful character I suspect he is!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      His wife would probably agree.

  8. Friggin Loon Avatar

    The 70’s rang…ah never mind. Dear god Bearman you are whipping these suckers out. I will have to go digging to find a suitable photo. Hmm, could take awhile!!!!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      You are the only one left

      1. Binky Avatar

        Are we actually going to see the real Loon?

  9. lisleman Avatar

    oh gee thanks.
    Been on the road today so this is my first look. Funny. I showed my wife and she laughed and said now that looks more like you. No respect I tell you.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      But isn’t it great she still loves you in your “condition”?

  10. Mark Stokes Avatar

    These are really wonderful, Bearman! Love the expressions and color and also the spotlight effect in the original drawing. Both versions are honka-honka hysterical!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks Mark. It is great when you have such an animated subject

  11. Scholar Mel Avatar

    At least he is eating somewhat healthy in the 2nd photo. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Health? That is fried dark meat!

    2. Bearman Avatar

      Healthy? That is fried dark meat!

      1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        What is wrong with fried dark meat? I eat it all the time and other than an occaisional heart attack I am in perfect health.

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Can you let those of us who like to eat the same when to expect our own so we can make sure not to be too far from the hospital.

          1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

            You must be runnin’ late. Head there now. I had my first heart attack when I was 36 years old….25 years ago. If you are over 36 and eat like I did don’t stray far from the emergency room.

          2. Bearman Avatar

            Have a history of high cholesterol in my fam so the doc already has me on meds

  12. rent textbooks Avatar

    I think this one looks great! Like the skinny one better than the other but they are both funny and cool.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Of course you did…I spent more time on the first one..haha

      1. rent textbooks Avatar

        This may be a dumb question but how can I make my newly drawn character show up when I comment?

        1. Bearman Avatar

          Go here http://en.gravatar.com/ and sign up. Then it will be associated with your email for when you comment. Don’t know how it will crop so if you need just the head let me know.

    Where can I get me a pair of those sunglasses? Excellent, Bearman!

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Bill…I think you are in business.

  14. jynksie Avatar

    I don’t know why, but this set of caricatures cracks me right the HELL up! [grin]

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Got to be the outfits.

  15. Tom Falco Avatar

    Well done. Love it.

  16. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

    Sorry…went wild on the comments but I haven’t had a connection for nearly a week and I have been havin’ withdrawl symptoms. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      withdrawl? That is the second time today that has been mispelled..haha

      1. Bo Lumpkin Avatar

        I didn’t mispell it. I always speak with a “drawl”. I thought you had seen my videos.

        1. Bearman Avatar

          I caught Frank spelling it the same way.

  17. Nate Fakes Avatar

    Haha. I like them both, but the second one is really good

    1. Bearman Avatar

      He asked for it.

  18. Frank M Hansen Avatar

    Now that is what I call – good interaction with your customers/fans. Perfect for the internet age.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Lisleman might not agree.

  19. MJ Avatar

    Ha,ha,ha! Good stuff!

  20. Binky Avatar

    That’s a good likeness, but he doesn’t look at all scary for a clown. I guess Lisleman must be one of those anti-clown clowns.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      He is one that will give you a balloon and then pop it.

  21. bschooled Avatar

    HA! This is exactly what happens to me when I eat too much salt.

    (And ice cream. And chocolate.)

    I can go from pic A to pic B within a matter of hours….

    1. Bearman Avatar

      So your non-PMS and then your PMS look?

  22. DadaHyena Avatar

    For some reason I hear the “You Bet Your Life” theme when I look at that first caricature.

    1. Bearman Avatar

      For some reason, I have no idea what that theme is.

  23. George Avatar

    Both drawings are cool and really capture the photo well. Love the loud, clown-like colors (as I’m sure you well know I would). You’re just showing off now, B. 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      I think you should sport a clown suit. It would be fitting.

  24. George Avatar

    Hey, in the second pic, is he full of chicken, confetti, or something else?

  25. Brian Hagen Avatar

    Good work, Bearman – and the caricatures are a perfect set. Before (daughter’s comment) and After; from flatter to fatter.

    The caricaturist’s life is a hard row to hoe. (Hmm, that doesn’t sound right.)

  26. Sabina Brave Avatar

    You are really good. You painted this man just great 🙂

    1. Bearman Avatar

      Thanks and thanks for stopping by.

  27. Dr. Cynicism Avatar

    Holy crap that is SPOT ON! Great work man!

  28. Jenn Avatar

    Loving these caricatures =)!! How long do they take?

    1. Bearman Avatar

      It depends. Sometimes I can get a pretty good resemblance the first sketch…sometimes it takes me 30 times. Usually a couple hours.
