Stanton Friedman Cartoon

I did a live caricature of Stanton Friedman, UFO Hunter, at the McMinnville Oregon festival. It wasn't that great but you know... lighting was bad and such.
As I was working, I added the gag; his microphone - unbeknown to Stanton, has become an alien! And there's another one hiding in his pocket.... (Markers on 9x12 paper)
A couple of days later, I drew a cartoon of Stanton Friedman - from memory - that was more complete. This is ALWAYS easier for me after a live draw. For some reason, it makes it possible for me to do better work from memory.
Dr. Stanton Friedman pilots his flying saucer - next destination, Zeta Reticuli, 39 light years. It's approximately what I remember from what he said.
The latter cartoon was drawn on 9x12 paper (Canson Recycled 80lb). It is a pen sketch (Uni-Ball Vision Needle) that was then scanned into my computer. I did the coloring in Photo Shop. If you want to see if I got the likeness but you don't know what the doc looks like, check StantonFriendman.com.
