nice one em, I really like the economy of it and the palette. Lots going on in (what appears to be) not a lot of strokes.

ian - it started as part of a bigger sketch which wasn't working, and then I cropped it tighter and enlarged it. I quite liked the resulting thick strokes, so I went with a chunky, simple, rough style.

Kamal - he's an Australian singer/songwriter and sometimes author, who is the subject of the current Caricaturama challenge.

Tom - thank you very much, sir.

Looking good, had no problems figuring out who it was...his face is quite particular.
