Let’s 'Custom your Cartoon'
Commission a cartoon. You may already have a rough idea of what you want featured in your cartoon and this will no doubt include the person that will be receiving the cartoon. So what else shall we add to the cartoon? Take a look at the following bullet points. Hopefully these may prompt some ideas that you may like to add:
- funny habits
- typical clothing
- hairstyles
- hobbies
- funny saying/catchphrase
- favourite items

I have been producing funny customised cartoons for my customers for many years. Do you need some assistance? CONTACT John on the tab above and I will be happy to guide you through the whole process of creating your perfect gift cartoon from start to finish.
Here are some handy points to consider before contacting me to commission your cartoon……………….
Working from Photographs.
Firstly, please understand these are CARTOON likenesses and NOT ‘photo realistic’ images. If it is a photo-illustration you need, please speak to me first as it may not be a cartoonist you require but a fine artist or an Illustrator.
If you have some good photos, send them along. But before you do, please let me offer you some pointers. Sounds crazy I know, but please select only the photos that look like your subject – remember, you know what they look like, but I can only go by what you send me.
The best choice of photos are ones that show as much facial detail as possible – avoid face-on shots. Avoid hats, sunglasses, dark shadowy photos, tiny images, heavy sunlit photos where your subject is squinting.

Hope it helps!
Initial Cartoon Sketches
Sketch # 1
Once I’ve received your photos and commission details, I can make a start to produce one or two rough sketch images. At this stage, this is where all the rough layout design work takes place. I use the best of your ideas (if not all of them) to produce this first rough drawing/s. If any changes need to take place, it’s at this stage where it happens.
Sketch #2
In this follow up sketch some alterations have taken place, been approved and ready to move onto the final artwork stage (above)
