My Girlfriend wanted to do something special for a friend's birthday, so she decided to get an authentic Jeff Morin caricature done of her friend and family.
The illustration was done on an 11 x 17 inch vellum bristol board. A Pentel brush pen was used for all the line work. Then I used some Prismacolor markers for the base colors, except for the skin-tones. I used a few Copic sketch markers for those. Only because I don't have any skin-tone Prismacolors other than peach which is a horrible color for skin it's more of a glowing orange.
All the shading and highlights were done with some Prismacolor colored pencils, by coloring on top of the base marker color.
I hear the recipient was very pleased with her gift.
