I like Molly the football player but they are all good. The way the bodies are smaller than the heads works well for cartoon portraits.

@ Tas_mania - thanks mate; I enjoy doing the cartoons :)

I've also just made a couple of subtle changes to the lady truckie image and reposted it.

This is a cool set of character studies! Looking over them, I think these earlier ones are my favorites so far:

Image

The reason is simple - these have (in my opinion) the most clearly defined and sharply outlined eyes in the gallery. The eyes are one of the first things we look towards when seeing another human, and I feel the clean lines here make these image work particularly well. Many of the other images seem (to me) to use a style where the eyes are not emphasized as much (even if they are big, they are not *emphasized* compared to the other colors of the face).

Good job. Keep it up!
