How do you produce a digital caricature based on a template?
1. Self-design of the template online: You design the template of body and background by replacing the body with one that suits you from a huge library of designs, including different body situations, backgrounds, illustrated elements, decorations, etc. It’s a good idea to edit the text in the design wizard or write it in the comments field during the order.
2. Drawing: We get the order, draw the head of the character according to the pictures you sent, and arrange the text as needed,
We send you the illustration for approval and proofreading. After completing the corrections and final approval, you receive the final high-resolution file by email or send it to print (depending on what was ordered).
The required photos
- Please send in photos with one person in the photo, or at least delete the irrelevant person, unless you order a couple or family drawing.
- The file name should include the name of the person, mentioning the eyes and hair color, preferably in English.
- Sharp face images, relatively close-up photography, and smiling are the best.
- A whole head in the photograph, not cut at the edges, not hidden by hands, not photographed from the side.
The caricature design
- Body and background selection: Select and position the body and background according to your imagination, within the designer wizard borders.

What is a digital caricature and what does it include?
A digital caricature is a cartoon portrait painted by an artist’s hand, that comes as a file that can be sent and opened as an image on a computer or smartphone, and printed on any printer, anywhere.
The illustration is made in drawing software, using a tablet, or a computer with a touch screen and stylus.
An advantage of digital painting is great accuracy and maximum similarity to the painted person, and the possibility of making changes and corrections easily, compared to painting done using traditional technique.
Digital cartoons can be obtained in a high-resolution JPG / PDF / PNG file, ready to print at home or print at your request on an image or product in one of the printing suppliers we work with.
