Self Portraits

This is a self portrait inspired by what I look like in the morning. My wife would probably agree. I recently heard that the average person thinks they are 6 times better looking than they really are. So I wanted to be realistic and included my less than flattering traits...Stretched out neck on my t-shirt, big ears, puffy eyes, neck hump, hair growing wild and untrimmed all over the place, dandruff and a classic rooster tail. After I drew this I noticed an unfortunate resemblance to the guy above.

This is a self portrait I did for a challenge my buddy put me up to. He challenged me to pay my rent by the profits I could generate through cartoon commissions. So I threw it up on facebook and it has been a great success so far. Very encouraging.
