"LOL"......I have no idea what this pic is about....I saw the "ref" pic, and I thought it looked kinda strangely funny and cute. I think it's a "caricature" of someone....I don't know who this guy is supposed to be.....but I never drew a caricature type of draw before, so I thought I'd give it a try. Well....I'm posting this as finished......I fixed him up the best I could. I might add a little bit of "dodge" tool to put some light on him.....but maybe I won"t....haha! I tried not using the texture tool.....I did start to use it on the trees....but I tried to "blend" it out. I googled "Botero" to find out who he is.....this is supposed to be a "self portrait" of Botero....."LOL"!

Hi "Crimson", and "DaVinci"......Thank you both for your comments.......I appreciate it very much. I never tried drawing anything like this before.....I just felt like trying something different and comical. I guess this is supposed to be a caricature type of draw......I hope I'll be able to finish it. Lol!! :D

I don't like Botero, I just googled that, well the first image I saw anyway ew! Reminds me of my angel draw. Now I'm scared of it. This is good none the less, but makes ya wonder... what will the flag be?, maybe turn it into a stop sign! just blabbing Well that was a quick judgement... I shall not be so rash. Or I will get a rash! Hey one time, I had "the christmas tree" rash on my back. Seriously that's what they called it. I dunno fc... I shall look more into this Botero character! (a self portrait) lol ah, I see

Hi "Lori"......Thank you very much for your comment......I appreciate it. I never heard of Botero before either, but I was browsing thru artwork at art.com, and I saw the "ref pic that I used for this draw......it made me laugh.....I thought it was a caricature type of art, so I wanted to see if I could draw like that. I did just now google Botero, and I really had to laugh at his gallery of artwork.....all of his pictures are so weird and funny......I think they're comical.....not scary. I've seen a lot scarier pics right here at 2draw, than what I saw in Botero's gallery. I don't know what the red flag means.....but I'm glad it's there.....I wouldn't want to draw what is hiding under that flag.....hahahaha!!! I think his artwork is really comical.....I'm thinking about doing another of his draws...."lol"! Thanks again for commenting "Lori"......I really appreciate your comments and opinions. :)

well I saw some dog lookin' like it was about to do the character he painted... and I was all "like"... wtf? so I came right back to 2draw lol...
firecracker (Aug 23, 2009)
"LOL" Lori!! Don't worry....if I do decide to do another of his pics.....I promise you I WON'T draw the pic that you just mentioned here....."lol".....I didn't see that one.....I don't think I want to see it.....haha! :D

my angel is fully clothed now, just revamped him
firecracker (Aug 24, 2009)
Hi "Lori......I just now checked out your angel......he looks very content, now that he is fully clothed...."lol"! I'm not gonna put clothes on this guy......he's happy with his flag....haha! This is the first draw I ever did showing a partially nude body. It seems that most everyone here draws nudes, but me......so I figure I should "go with the flow"....and do likewise.."LOL"!! I won't draw anything that shows genitalia though.....I'm not comfortable with that. I'll leave those kinds of draws up to "Kloxboy" and "Axil"....haha!! Anyway.....there's nothing "indecent" about my "Botero" draw.....I think he's a nudie cutie....."LOL"!!! By the way......I think your angel really does resemble John Travolta....cute draw!! :)

That perfect "V" of chest hair completely cracks me up ;D
firecracker (Aug 31, 2009)
Hi "Grey Ghost" Great seeing you again! Thanks very much for your comment....I really do appreciate it.....I'm glad you like my chubby little man....haha!! It is supposed to be a self portrait of "Botero", but I need to do a little more work on his facial features to make him look more like Botero. I had fun doin' this draw.....I never did one like this before....."LOL"!! :)

I call my penis my chubble little man.
firecracker (Aug 31, 2009)
"LOL" flubadub......do you like my chubby little man?????? :P
backmagicwoman (Aug 31, 2009)
LMAO..yeah flubadub..how bout that?
Flubbles (Aug 31, 2009)
I cant say im that keen...it looks like you draw one half of his body copied it then flipped it over to make it look cemetrical.Which is fine if your drawing a gingerbreadman...but not so much in this case.
backmagicwoman (Aug 31, 2009)
Ok..so what is the deal with the flag?
firecracker (Aug 31, 2009)
Well, flubadub.....this draw isn't supposed to be a realistic looking one......it's more of a satire, cartoonish, caricature type of draw.......it's ok if it looks like a gingerbread type draw....lol! I used the ref pic that Botero drew, and it looks very much like the original pic, except for his facial features.....I did a half ass job on that....haha!! I appreciate your criticism though......I know if you were to do this same draw....it would look perfect.....I'm not an artist....I'm still learning, and I have a lot of learning to do.....haha! :P Hi "BMW"......Thanks for commenting.....you want to know what the red flag means.....well.....I think you'll have to ask the original artist (Botero) why he put the flag there....but I'm glad it's there.....because I wouldn't want to draw what's hiding under that flag.....HaHa!!!! :D
