Caricatures for Singapore Armed Forces

This is one of the bigger orders which 'jammed' up my Christmas order.
The rest are the multiple smaller jobs, but still needs time to draw them out.

Can't remember the client's exact reason for doing these caricature.
Shouldn't be as farewell gifts.
Maybe as 'Thank You' gifts.

While rendering this caricature, I have a slight 'enlightenment' that shading can be done in this way, 'watery' and 'sculptural' at the same time. Not really sure at this stage. You won't be able to tell the difference too. I will need more experiments before I can tell what it is actually. I think it has to do with the facial muscles, as well as the light that falls on the subject.

More exaggeration here, which I think this caricature should look better in this way.

I like this piece, especially the mouth part.

This is my another experiment.
I could be right. The facial muscles and the lighting.
Need more pieces to confirm.

I think this is not bad too.

This bald head is 'shiok' to draw.
Overall, it just looks good to me.

This is one of the better one, to me.
His features are very distinctive, especially his big nose and ears.
The brush strokes I have used here is slightly bolder and stronger than normal.

This is a continuation of the previous piece, in terms of exaggeration on the lips.
Shiok! but whether he will like it this way, is another question.

Just received an email from the client:-
"Jit Leong, I presented the gifts to my staff this week. I must say they were very well done and well-recevied. A very different gift from the usual one.

Interestingly, some of your drawings do portray the real life character of the person.

Thanks a lot for your wonderful work.

Thanks and Regards,
Ong Ai Chuan"
