Can't get this quite right.

OH WOW, thanks marcello. That was perfect. I don't know why I get a blockage in my brain with my draws at times. I reworked everything on this pic except the forehead. DUH.....stubborn I guess. I kept thinking his chin was not long enough, but shortening the forehead made the chin just right. Thnaks again for the cc. It was needed, I was going NUTS.

By the way, how would I know what 100~200 pixels would be?

I love this so much. <3
You're very good, I like your style ^_^

Obama is going to be a great president~

not sure if it's intentional or not, but his forehead looks too big... if you cover the top 100~200 pixels of the drawing with your hand, it looks more accurate.

Intentionally or not, it can be easily fixed with the select and move tool. Like this style.

those tools confuse me, sometimes they work for me, other times not

thanks axel, that was enlightening. Actually, My big brother is a better likeness, he actually has red hair and freckles. Were you a fan in the peanut gallery? I liked Bozo. hehe
Axil62 (Jan 21, 2009)
No, the peanut gallery was before my time and Bozo was a joke to us.
To be more specific and maybe helpful though... Obama's features are more angular, he has a long thin head/face in general. Don't get me wrong, I think this is great. Funny as hell. :) Definately portrays inexperience.

Axel, I had his face longer and it did not look like him at all. I thought this looked better, as I did marcello's suggestion and I think it looks more like him now. Back to the drawing board I guess. So...it portrays my inexperience, or Obama's?

I also thought you and I were closer in age than that, cause I did watch the show. OH DUH, I was thinking Bozo was the clown on the Howdy Dudy show but that was Clarabell. Aging really does suck....I am totally losing it.

And, thanks you firecracker, enjoy, dave, GrowingAritist and Kitsunabu

OK, I see it. The distance from the corners of the mouth to the eyes needs to be a bit longer, his nose is too short and fat.

Not sure this is quite right yes, still open for some gentle cc.
Axil62 (Jan 21, 2009)
By golly, I think you're on to something.

Went There on my way to left of Center. Found the payphones, but had no Change couldn't call. Must be why I kept hearing the distant roar of a chant " The Change- The Change- The Change"
