Incredible work, I did not see that there were so many process as to a caricature portrait. I myself am working on realistic portraits and your videos help me out a lot in viewing things a different way. I do not have a teacher or another fellow artist who I could trust his opinion on my work, so I work even harder to see my own faults but as I said, your videos are of great help and I'm thankful for the time you take, all the info that's already available for free. THANK YOU VERY MUCH STAN!

[@LamarVahnoi]

Peter Dinklage is one of my favorite actors. I think he's attractive and I love his voice.

[@sign543]

This just blows me away. True living art...watching the process is one of the most interesting things to me. Fantastic.

[@AshtrayHDlate]

Thank You for your artistic service to us passionate people who strive to be better!

[@vivanovski6729]

Great video! Though I always find your rough sketch way more appealing than your final piece.

[@billlarocque8359]

These videos are wonderful, Court.

[@OmnipotentO]

I am enjoying these a lot

[@skwidvishus1188]

Absolutely inspiring. I've GOT to learn this. I WILL learn this....yep.

[@emailatomic]

Really nice one there Court. I like what you did with it. Sometimes when someone's work is so consistently good it almost doesn't seem like it needs to be complimented anymore. But I sincerely thought you did a great job here

[@willrothfuss8470]

All of your caricatures are brilliantly done. There is a lot of anatomy and perspective in there, which I don't know if you have a video for anywhere. For example a nose or mouth or eye are all quite difficult to draw in 3/4 view. I must say I like the "rough sketch" the best here.

[@feneron5797]

Thanks for your videos, they are very informative, interesting and helpful! Please tell Stan we miss him ;-;

[@1307]

does Peter Dinklage remind anyone of a realistic Dr. Neo Cortex from Crash Bandicoot?

[@royalzak2670]

Beautiful, motivates me to get up and work on my caricature.

[@felld]

You got a beautiful talent! good Proko!

[@ruffrow]

the first one is better than the final :)

[@TommyLikeTom]

I thought you were going to do more at the end. Your rough sketch was better

[@sivaprasad6079]

top rated tutorial thanks lot

[@lcujino]

Like The way presenta the subject

[@GeraldusOne]

Hi Court! Many thanks for these videos! Can you share please paper density of newsprint you guys are using? Having struggle to find good paper for practices locally. Two or three touches with eraser crashes the surface making any pencil stroke too bold and dark. Thanks

[@CourtJones]

Sorry that I only now saw this question. But to answer it, I used Pro Art brand smooth newsprint. 18 x 24 inches. The front cover of the paper pad says it is 32# weight (52 gsm).

[@JoaoSilva-zi6nt]

no joke ,from the beginning of this course to now I got from amateur draftsman to professional painter

[@ronaldnavarrete1919]

Hi, good job, what kind of pencil do you use?

[@IVIodest]

This guy puts the science and math into art

[@antonioblanco3086]

Wow! amazing! your job is awesome!

[@tobe1359]

good job, just one thing, the hair on top should be way closer to skull ...i believe...but great drawing though.

[@djhutchison]

Sounds like you have Schroeder doing your background music.

[@adityabarodia3484]

Please make my caricature.....Dear Promo. I am from India and I love your arts

[@sketchchannel5683]

does the body caricature requires abstraction?

[@valben8663]

Instant unrecognizable wow

[@tobe1359]

have you tried to use Procreate app ?

[@uknowwhoiam5831]

Wish I could do the same 😔

[@maheshwarghade3095]

PLZ ANSWER I can't draw exact faces of people..will I be still able to draw caricatures with enough likeness?? hope you understand my question :(

[@CourtJones]

If you follow the lessons, understand the topics and do the assignments, your ability to capture a likeness should improve. But doing the work at home is essential! I was very bad at drawing caricatures when I first started. It was a long road and required a lot of practice.

[@arpanroy6043]

fun fact that's his actual drawing speed

[@Argadeux]

Great 👌🏼

[@wetbaklava]

YAAAS PETEERRR

[@abbyferguson8138]

hello! I really enjoyed this and I was wondering if you could draw Millie Bobby brown/ eleven from stranger things or just any of the stranger things cast? I would love to see what you could do! Thank you :))

[@50daysago14]

Oh yea stroke my pencil Proko

[@thisguyrighthere3647]

I always prefer the first version.

[@thepuppetshow6092]

Captain Gutt

[@TheYnotThat]

Peter D. is already a walking living caricature already though. Big head, lots of hair, and a small body.

[@johngadeikis2146]

TheYnotThat Shame on you!

[@ItsRaitisLV]

Drawing him using average human proportions would be a caricature

[@topclo]

caralho muito bom!!

[@bsalaberry1007]

Every action cause a reaction..something you are missing here. Also you didn´t achieve a better likeness on Mr Dinklage cause you didn´t draw his eyes, his mouth and his nose but I saw some of your caricature work and you are really good!👍

[@Stettafire]

Yeah I do feel like he made the face too small. Dinklage has a very square face with a strong jawline and I feel like it's a bit lost in this drawing.

[@lunarcofficial]

James brown

[@MrMorgansullivan]

who is the guy at the end ?

[@CourtJones]

That's me, the guy who drew the caricature in this video. I teach the caricature course on Proko.com. I also taught classes at the same atelier as Stan many years ago.

[@MrMorgansullivan]

haha ok ^^

[@rustishackleford3354]

Looks like James Brown

[@vdimhancu]

No, the whole part under the nose is undersized and should have been oversized. In this way his character changes - a determined and voluntary type becomes erased

[@richardpham6236]

hi

[@mendez058]

Hello, son of the Terry Thomás.

[@vitalisacharenko4273]

Wow. o_O...

[@blablabinge4804]

astonishing work, as always I really dig the likeness on this one! I´m 15 and I also drew a caricture of peter, check it out here: instagram.com/p/BUVYUHFhCEX/?taken-by=fritzerler

[@tubekulose]

He can draw quite well, but he sometimes has problems with similarity.

[@thomassciolino6068]

who doesn't?

[@JonathanChenentercreativeurl]

He tends to be looser with drawings- all his paintings capture likeness pretty well

[@ronaldnavarrete1919]

Hi, good job, what kind of pencil do you use?

[@nejmenfan]

He uses Conte a Paris Pierre Noir HB

[@ronaldnavarrete1919]

ok friend

[@CourtJones]

I used the Conte a Paris charcoal pencil for the thumbnails and rough sketches. And I used the Palomino Blackwing 601 for the final drawing.
