My Wedding Caricature

Here's are some products that I have created using my wedding caricature. Not that I expect anyone to buy them (No, I don't want strangers to buy products which has my face on them), it's just for the fun of it.
I'd love to buy a mug for myself if it's not so expensive... Haha, I can't afford to buy my own products *irony*.

Anyway, here's the link if you are interested to see the making of my wedding caricature. :)

Wedding Caricature for Weddding Invitation Postcard and Wedding Reception

The most recent decent work that I did was a wedding caricature of my best friend, Ying. The initial idea for the use of the wedding caricature was for wedding invitation postcard:


Then the wedding couple decided to blow it up for display at the wedding reception. So I did the coloured version for them:

I have set up a store at Zazzle. Not sure whether I can make it a success but it was fun, seeing my own illustrations on cups, postage, t-shirts, etc.

I have used my previous illustration of a cute fat girl (Dai Haha) and a cute fat boy (Guai Baobao) for a start. They are caricatures of me and my boyfriend actually. Haha!
