Contest Brief

I'd like to create a caricature of myself as an invitation of friends to my 50th birthday.

I've attached some profile shots.

The 50th birthday is going to be an invitation for about 25 friends to join me on a number of canal boats for a week, in the UK.

You can see pictures of the boats here http://www.leboat.com.au/boats

The cruises look like this http://www.leboat.com.au/holidays/destinations/england/the-thames/cruises/the-scholars-cruise

I'm open to suggestions/ideas, but the obvious idea seems to involve me and one or more boats crashing in the background.

By way of personal character assassination, my friends would describe me as wealthy, arrogant, my-way-or-the-highway twit that has a voice like an aristocrat lord of the manor type. They'd say I was unsympathetic, unromantic but generous! I'd say they have judged me wrong, but sadly not.

I'd be happy to answer any further questions ahead of your proposal.I'd like to invite proposals up until 16th May and will make a candidate selection immediately thereafter.

The invitation will be posted on Facebook, so a slight complication is it can't be a wide format picture. There doesn't have to be any text on the caricature, but if you feel it adds to the design to do so, feel free, otherwise I'll put all the copy in the body of the Facebook invitation.

      Hilarious, made me laugh out loud. The gold bling is probably a bit our of character for me, but I like it. It makes it all the funnier. Keep it!

    Entry 2 is certainly a front runner here with an image of me that is a good likeness, a bit of fun disaster in the background. If I had a fault, it would be that it doesn't look like an English canal holiday with the sand dunes in the background

    Did not quite understand. Would you like this plot of your own murder, with boats and people in the background, in a single image, in a caricature, or in a kind of comic book?

      Definitely a single image. I think Entry 2 is not far off the mar, with me the mian feature of the invitation
