So the contest is this:  

Draw a caricature of a member on LiveWire. It can be anybody at all. Go to somebody's IB, take their picture, and from it draw a caricature sketch of how they look in that particular picture. Then, post the picture and the caricature in this topic. The idea is to say what we've always wanted to say about our fellow LW members--how somebody might have a large nose, or how their eyes might be bulging, or even personality-wise, whether somebody is charismatic or annoying--in a friendly environment where such jokes are taken lightly. However that is not to say that anything can be posted on these. Submissions containing high levels of rudeness to personal issues posted on the forums will be removed. Please exhibit good judgement. YOU MUST GET THE SUBJECT'S PERMISSION BEFORE POSTING AN ENTRY! IN ORDER TO DO THIS, HAVE THEM POST ON THE CONTEST PAGE THAT IT IS OKAY AND THEN QUOTE THAT IN YOUR ENTRY! DO NOT EDIT IT IN LATER, PERMISSION MUST BE GIVEN BEFORE ENTRY.

SUBMISSION FORMAT:

Please follow this format, as it will make judging a whole lot easier.

HOW IT WILL BE JUDGED:
dreamweaver is the other judge for this contest.

Each entry will receive a certain numbers of points, from 1 to 10.

Each point is given out for a different reason:


  • Resemblance--does the caricature recognizably look like the subject?
  • General realism--are there two eyes? Does the face resemble a face or some macaroni and cheese?  
  • Humor--Is the submission funny to look at, or is it boring?
  • Exaggeration--Exaggeration is a key point in caricatures. Is the picture exaggerated in key places to amplify bad features?
  • Creativity--is it your average caricature drawing (long nose, squinty eyes, whatever), or is it something a bit more creative?
  • Artistic Quality--Is it altogether drawn with effort, care, and skill? Did the artist use supplies other then the same pencil used for math homework? Does it show that the artist worked hard?
  • Relevance--Since this is a caricature of a LW member, are jokes included in the sketch that could well fit the personality of the character?  
  • The last three points will be based off of the full package--does it all work together to make the finished product something special? Or do the pieces clash?

Whichever members get the highest amounts of points will have their caricatures voted on in a new topic; NOT a poll, as those can be easily cheated.

Each member who enters the contest, a link to their caricature, and their score, will be posted on the contest page. Please refrain from arguing the scores received, as they have been carefully thought out by the judges.

By entering this contest, you are saying that this is your and ONLY your work. Anybody caught cheating will be disqualified.  

Current Scorecard and Entries:
NOTE: These are the membernames of those who submitted the caricatures, not of those who are in them.
rosebud-3 points

Rollo Tomasi-8 points

Napster the Hacker-9 points

No, sorry. You only get points if you are the one who physically draws the picture.

Do you think I could do a caricature of an ex LW member?
Definitely. It must be somebody with actual personality and posts, though, because obviously pics are unavailable.
