Strangetown extras: Johnny, Ripp and Ophelia artwork

I previously mentioned that my significant other had agreed to use his artistic talents to create caricatures of some of the characters in my Strangetown story, and he just came home and presented me with the finished product. How exciting! I chose Johnny, Ripp, and Ophelia as the subjects, and I'm quite pleased by the results. 








So, what do you think?








Edited to Add:


Also, check out his comic blog, The Box Factory, if you're interested in seeing more of his work. Be warned that there is some crude humour, but don't let that scare you away. If nothing else, I recommend that you check out this illustration of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song as 3D shape poem.

Oh my gosh that is so awesome! Your SO is very talented and I just love caricatures! I'd like to see his take on the rest of the Strangetown gang *cough* Curious *cough* sometime too if he's ever in the mood, lol! Really cool of him to do this for you!

If all the sims in the world were to disappear in that giant fiery ball visible from space, my hubby would freaking jump up and down clapping and do a little happy dance. Pisser. lol.

Yeah, he's talented, no doubt. He's been focusing on the comic thing for a while now, and he's getting really good at it. If I got nothing else out of art school (besides a lifetime of great material to laugh at), at least I managed to get myself tangled up with him. (Awww, is Valentine's Day really over?)

It was really cool and nice of him to do this, since he usually doesn't have a lot of time for sims, beyond making fun of them. That's one of the reasons that I'm even here. To avoid boring him to tears. :P (Though he is quite interested in the idea of sims story creation, and has been passing on books about film concepts to me, since he teaches animation.)

Who knows if I will be able to talk him into another one. We'll see. Maybe I will try my hand at one too, one of these days. Our style is different, to say the least.

Aww I love the "at least I managed to get myself tangled up with him" bit. That is just so cute. :)

Well, it's true. I haven't come across many other people who I relate to quite as well as him. I can be so romantic at times... *snicker*
