John Heads, Sketches and Colored
🕑 Added 2025-02-23 18:00:08 +0000 UTCI haven't painted these yet but thought you might like a peek at the first steps.
Here's the original sketch.
A sketch of a sleepy or stoned man.
Here he is with gradients, ready to render.
This one below was inspired by congressman Matt Gaetz.
If ever there was a man who looked like a caricature of what you'd imagine a corrupt politician to look like it's him. "Central casting" as our president would say.
I did a better caricature of him a couple weeks later.
I still can't make his eyes look quite as evil as they appear in real life.
He looks like he's possessed.
Scary, huh?

Amazing! Johnny, you’ve done it again, but that’s a very funny but fully darker caricature of Matt Gaetz, in terms of the physical villainy in the eyebrows. Therefore, sure is good to have your internet back on track for sure! Keep up the excellence, Johnny! Polyvios. PS Greatest choice on including the photo references to Matt in comparison to your funnier caricatures of him.

You ain't kidding about Gaetz. Reminds me of Jack Nicholson yet way more evil. Those eyebrows are just stuck like that. Lol no other emotion seems to show. Excellent sketches. For the inking, are you using vector brushes?
