Bada$$ custom cartoon caricature needed - $75 Paypal

I need a custom character designed for my article marketing product I just came out with. The name is article marketing on steroids, so I am looking for a character that exemplifies that.

I am thinking an article in the shape of a person, sitting down on a stool with a piece of cloth tied around it's arm and injecting a needle into it's arm. So in other words a person shooting up on roids (but as an article cartoon character) to go with the name "article marketing on steroids".

I am looking for the "bad ass" type look. I want the article character to be looking out, so it looks like he is looking at you.

Just ask me if you need any clarifications. Looking forward to seeing what you guys can do. Winner gets $75, and I am not sure what type of a time constraint to put on this because it's a bit of an unusual need. I will just end it when I get the character I am looking for.

 

wow... this is hard..

 

I think I'll give it a try but could you clarify "I am thinking an article in the shape of a person" ? ^^ Something like a human silhouette but white with words on it?

 

Here's something I drew. I can change or color it, based on your feedback

 

So it's like an article (so maybe lines on the paper or small scribbled cursive) in the shape of a man. So think of it like the article is super flexible and a man pressed himself against the article. Then the article would take the shape of the man, but still have the ends of the article there, like it would still be a square piece of paper. Does that make sense?

Just have it be a bar stool, rather then a chair with a back to it.

the cloth tied around his arm should be right under the shoulder and he should be injecting under the cloth. Make him kind of hunched over, leaning forward elbow of the arm getting injected on his knee.

Then as for the article marketing on steroids sign you had him hold. How about put that as a tattoo on the arm he is using to inject the needle with.

Thanks for the attempt, good start. Others are welcome to join in.

 

Thanks for the feedback. Will be coming with a revision tomorrow

 

my skectch first,,if you like it i can vectorize it and adding more detail.

 

Here's my second concept



PS - There are some details (like the chair for example) that are not completely done, but wanted to make the character shape as you want it, and other stuff (coloring and more detail) after that.

Awaiting feedback

Haha, this is getting fun.

ok so I like it more like sparkles where he is one square piece of paper that he is
coming out of, rather then having paper ends come out of his appendages. Have him injecting the bicep. Add a tied cloth tied around his arm right under his shoulder (the cloth is supposed to be like a makeshift tourniquet).

Good first try though, I like the start.

To both ato and blankey, it's got to be an article man. Adding words to the back of
a man won't work. But I like the attempt though guys.

Haha, I kind of like it. Hmmm, ok let's make the bottom corners of the page his legs.
So make em longer and touching the ground like he is using them like legs. Then can
you make his arms like the article page? I kind of like the arms you made, but am not
sure. I really like the different approach though, give me a couple different looks at it,
thanks for your entry.

Great yours is getting good. So lets make the paper go out to the ends of his feet
and his head. So the end of the top of the paper curls above his head and the end
of the bottom of the paper curls at his feet. Then make his fist on his left arm
clenched.

Ok and for everyone else, with the name tattooed on the arm, lets just go with AMS.
Article marketing on steroids is a little long to fit onto the arm, so AMS will work fine.

But for Sparkle, I think the name fits well on the arm as it is, not sure if that will
change when I make the image smaller, but we will see.

Thanks for the entries guys and anyone else feel free to join in.

 

Based on your feedback



Awaiting further instructions, if any

 

Lets bring his face back into the article, like turtlepod has it. Then lets bring his left arm in so his elbow is in the crease of his waist.

Thanks.

 

yup that's pretty much it, only thing I would say might still be off a bit is the smile. I'm not sure if it like it or not. Lemme see what a more serious face
would look like. But ya, pretty much that is good. I will wait and see if anyone else wants to update theirs, but if not I like your and that's basically what I was
looking for.

 

Ok Thanks for your feedback..i'll update it later this day.

 

Here's a more serious face, tell me if you want him "angry"
