digital runner caricature for Apple

Client's brief:-
"Hi Jit,

My work colleague referred me to you. We work for the Apple Enterprise team representing south asia and are looking to give our boss a going away present. He is moving back to Sydney Australia next week.

The idea we have is that he would be running (he does Iron Man triathalons) past our team.  We would be in the crowd but in front of buildings that represent our countries.  ie The Merlion,MBS, Flyer of Singapore, Petronas Towers of Malaysia, etc..

Singapore - The Merlion,....Petronas Towers of Malaysia, etc...
Thailand -  Thai Royal Palace.
Malaysia - Petronas Towers
Philippines - A jeepney with random people hanging off and cheering....

Also my boss coined the phrase when he runs "Eat the Pain".  Maybe incorporate that in a thought bubble?  The face we would like for him would be his running face.  He is a drooling mess and we all laugh at him when we see pictures of him at his race.  I think will be funny...."

A farewell gift for the boss.

A draft for the client.


Started with the main subject!

Pencil sketch done in Sketchbook Pro.


Started inking in Sketchbook Pro too. Love the felt pen strokes - very similar to my G-pen!

The inking was not easy. Took me quite sometime to complete, especially under the tight timeframe.

Colour rendering was done in Photoshop.It has better (watercolour) layering effect than Sketchbook Pro.


My daughter gave me a helping hand in filling the solid colour of the deck.


I am satisfied with teh overall result here!


Looks impressive when printed out in A2 size witrh lamination. Looks like anime poster to me!
