July 24, 2009 | Thoughts & Words By Sneh Roy | 14 Comments

I am very excited to announce our very first contest here on the LBOI Design Blog. See that picture of me immortalized forever in all my cartoon glory? Well, that is the handiwork of John Mascarenhas who is also featured in "Artist Spotlight" today. John is an amazing illustrator with a very unique style. And he has very generously offered to Cartoonize 5 very lucky readers!! Thanks very much John!! We appreciate it!!
Now all you have to do to win this fun, funky prize is leave a comment below with,
1. Your Twitter Id [So John and I can follow you]
2. What do you think is the funniest feature of your face?
3. If you win a caricature, what good use will you put it to?
The contest will run from July 24th 2009 to August 7th, 2009. Winners will be decided on the most fun, creative answers by a mystery judge [who will be revealed along with the winners]. Yes, you have to get creative people!! No random generators here!! I will leave you to smile over some of John’s funny caricatures while you think up of something funny yourself.



**COMMENTS ARE NOW CLOSED AS OF AUG 7, 2009**
**WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON AUG 10, 2009. STAY TUNED!**

John Mascarenhas has style. There is an innate dark, tongue-in-cheek humor element in most of his brilliant illustrations. He has been sketching since he was 7, but much to the chagrin of his gran ...

What a cool prize! Would love to see myself cartoonised. My funniest feature would probably be my nose, I can see that being blown way out of proportion. If I did win I would display it as my profile picture on Facebook for all to see
Oh and my Twitter ID is @justcreative
Thanks you Sneh and John!

Very nicely done!
1. Twitter @razdjp
2. I never really stopped to much to laugh at myself that way before and now that I am I would say the sometimes false angry look
3. I am going to use it on all my profiles (with appropriate credits and permission of course) as I always wanted to have one. No matter how many times I attempted to create one in photoshop it will not even come close to what a real artist like John is going to do.
Thanks for the opportunity & nice website BTW.
My silliest facial feature? Hmmmm maybe my chin?
I would love to win this to put on my blog!!

1) @ designabot
2) I would have to go with my ears.. not sure if they are in proportion but they look quite big to me :p
3) Gave it a bit of thought… of course as an avatar but as an email signature also. Best of all it would be printed and sent out to all friends/family and clients for birthday and xmas cards.
Thanks guys… will be fun to see whoever wins. Cheers, Rich
I’ll throw my hat in the ring. I know if I won my face would be in John’s capable hands (which sounds dirtier than it actually is).
1. My twitter id is @knightscreative
2. What do you think is the funniest feature of your face?
Hmm, I’d have to say the middle part. You know, the part between my forehead and my chin.
3. If you win a caricature, what good use will you put it to?
I’m thinking of putting it on a billboard. Just my cartoon face and talk balloon that says, “Hi!”. I might also replace my drivers license photo and distribute printouts to women in the park.

1. my twitter is @twe4ked
2. Im not sure, maybe my eyebrows? the’re pretty crazy
3. I’ll be using it as my avatar for everything. I’m so over having multiple crappy photos of myself.

Thanx sneh for such a great contest

1) @ manojkhiyani
2) Ears – stand out or prominent
3) If I a caricature, I would love to give it for use to a kid’s magazine or a website too. Would further use it as an avatar and/or create my blog theme. Use will also depend on terms of the contest.

Great Comp.
Oooh fun stuff! My twitter ID is missrachilli and I’d use the image as a part of my twitter page
I’m not sure what the funniest part of my face is…probably my eyes as they’re quite wide open a lot of the time!
