I have had fun doing group caricatures of casts from different shows, so I am doing more.  I do not watch Big Bang Theory, but I like the differences in their faces, so I thought I would give it a try.  I am not sure if I hit the mark on this one because some of the actors are actually pretty good and look very different in character.  Also, I do not know their names, so looking up character references was harder. I learned a few names along the way.  Sheldon’s face is all about angles.  from his arching eyebrows to his tight pursed lips. He has large eyes, which contrast his best friend (?)  in size.  When you exaggerate one feature big on one character and another has the same feature exaggerated small, it contrasts even more and makes for a better exaggeration :)  The girl, although pretty, still has a unique face.  Some pretty girls are hard to distinguish because they look too “perfect”  She has large, but sort of droopy eyes, and big lips that smirk to one side.  And her nose is small but flat (no ball at the end) and slightly down turned.  Coloring on a flat nose is important.  You have to color it very different than a round ball at the end of the nose.  The guy in the purple sweater’s nose is a little more upturned and his lips are large, but the bottom lip is smaller than the top.  And he looks kind of bored, or uncomfortable. The best friend with glasses has a very wide face especially compared to the others.  and instead of the smirk that so many other characters seem to have, he has a big goofy smile.  I am sorry I do not know the characters better, but it was still a piece I wanted to do.  I hope you enjoy.
