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.

Johnny was the easiest to caricature, by far, since he has the most extreme features, like the needle nose. I think he's great. Ripp's less pretty here, for sure, but I expected that he'd end up like that (with the long hair and the scruff). I saw an earlier version of him that was even worse. I quite like the sleazy vibe he gave him. I was wondering how he'd deal with Ophelia, since she has the most conservative features and styling, but he gave her a bit of flair too.

I'll be sure to pass on the comments to him.
