Daily DeviationMug Shot Posters by ~humanskin managed to use characters with different type faces to create unique characters, each styled differently to have their own personalities. Ingenious and cleverly thought out. (Suggested by ~FaMz and Featured by ^ArhcamtIlnaad)

Cool idea. At first I just thought it was really really stylized - didn't even notice the letters. I really like the simplicity of it. That, and the fact that you used just the letters and still achieved clear facial expression and body language, specifically in the first one.

:+fav: by the way :D

Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it! =)

Thanks! I'm glad you didn't see the letters immediately. I'm particularly fond of images that are still appealing at first glance, but after a second seem to fool you by being composed of something else. It's nice to know that I accomplished that kind of visual trickery!

Oh, that's just the dearest thing I've ever seen. hehe. :) I smiled so much when I saw this. I loved it.

I didn't see the letters immediately and I'm thinking that that was your intention.

I looked at them for quite a while and then came back to them later today. :)

They're wonderful. Concept is awesome and so is execution. Well done. Great job. :D
