Chris Pirillo ~ YouTube Powerhouse, Technology Strategist and more

Sep 22, 2011

Tonight I’m posting a very subtle manipulated caricature of Chris Pirillo, as he is already a walking caricature. Chris is a fellow Google+‘er, a multi-talented Technology guru, a YouTube giant, very prominent social networker, Technology Strategist and many other things as well as really nice guy. Most Google+ enthusiasts will recognize him right away, but for those of you who don’t know him, he is a very well circled Google+’er with 53,000+ circles, probably a lot more by now with Google+ finally going public. Be sure and look for +Chris Pirillo and circle him. You’ll also want to subscribe to his entertaining and informative YouTube channel with 7 million+ channel views…wow! where he discusses Technology and explains things in such a way that even I can understand, beside he’s funny as he!!. It’s great stuff. I watch it every day, several times a day. He stays quite busy on YouTube. You can also find Chris’s Facebook Fan Page, Blog and you can tweet him @ChrisPirillo if you’d like. He’s all over, you can’t miss him. I’m also posting a short video from his massive YouTube archive. Go check him out! Circle, follow, like, favorite, tweet, and anything else I forgot to mention. Below are the source images I used for this project. Goodnight! Oh, don’t forget to circle me at +Rodney Pike and help me grow my 6,000+ circles.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day and be inspired!

Kristian Winnem ~ Google+ Commission

Sep 19, 2011

Tonight I’m posting a commission that was just completed and delivered yesterday. The caricature is of Kristian Winnem who is in one of my circles on Google+. Kristian is originally from Sweden and can be found on Google+ by his handle +Kristian Winnem. Kristian is a cycling enthusiast and most importantly a gamer. His games of choice are war games like Black Ops and Battlefield on XBOX 360. I decided to go with Call of Duty – Black Ops for the theme and other than that Kristian gave me free reins to do pretty much what I wanted and of course he asked for a full out situational manipulation. He was quite happy with the outcome. The images posted below are the ones Kristian provided for my source material. I am accepting these personal commissions on a limited basis but if price is an issue, maybe it’s not for you. Just ask Kristian.

Barqzr Davi The Terrible Portrait commission

Sep 8, 2011

Tonight I’m posting a caricature study I did for a good Google+ friend, Davi Barqzr. Don’t ask me how to pronounce it. His G+ handle is +barqzr so if you’re a G+er, check him out. He’s a very interesting person. A little eccentric but I think that’s a good thing, especially in my world. Seriously, he is a true lover of great art, great music and has an awesome sense of humor. Barqzr is one of the most interesting subjects I’ve worked with. He’s tough, proud, a bit crusty, has great features for a caricature and has a little attitude for good measure. I think it suits him well. I see him in a blood spattered crusty suit of armor wielding a massive sword in a medieval setting. Actually he was a lot of fun to work with but it’s back to business tomorrow. I experimented with one new techniques and actions this time that I’ve been working with to better enhance detail. As you can see, he did most of the work though. Below is the original source image used for this project. This guy should be in movies right? Don’t forget, I’m a G+er as well so circle us. My handle is +Rodney Pike.
