Caricatures of IPM-Asia

Finally finished this, after 6 working days, from sketch to final. I think this is the longest recently, as I am drawing this on and off, due to different tasks on hand to handle concurrently recently.


Pencil sketches.


Inking process......


Inking done.


Colouring.....

Still colouring......


This is a farewell gift to the boss who is leaving the company, going back to Japan.

The staff has no idea on the concept initially.

They just want to have all of them to be drawn in a group caricatures for him.
After taken down their hobbies individually, I show them a rough draft on the spot at my gallery, showing their positions and postures in the caricatures.

The Suntec City, Singapore (the Fountain of Wealth and the towers in the background) is where their office is located. The company logo - IPM-Asia, initially is to be put at the bottom left of the drawing. However, they change to have it on the sail after seeing the sketch.

Usually for a farewell gift to someone who's leaving Singapore, the client will request to have the Singapore landmarks like Merlion. As Singapore is an island, to bring all of them together under a common setting, it is hard for me to get out of the island and sea setting. I must try to get out of this, else too much of this composition is killing me, and bored the clients to death, sooner or later. Hahaha.....
