Strangetown extras: Johnny, Ripp and Ophelia artwork

[strangetomato]

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.

Awesome! This made me laugh so much because it's just too good. I especially love Johnny's nose and eyes. Ripp's hair is great with that one ear showing, and Phi's topknot. ;)

They're pretty funny, aren't they? I think he really pegged them in a lot of ways. If I ever start to take them too seriously, I can come back here to look at this.

I like how big Ripp's head is. There was an earlier version where he had this giant forehead, which I talked my SO out of, and I'm glad he did it this way instead, since it's a better likeness.

I love how he did Phi's topknot. It has such a Ren and Stimpy quality to it (which makes sense, as he's a big fan).
