Facebook challenge

I've just come across the Wittygraphy site, which has a very cool feature where they have caricature competitions every two weeks. Nothing like a good bit of healthy competition to help hone the skills. There was only about 40mins left of the deadline for there latest contest, which was to draw or paint the 50's TV American actor Karl Malden. The sketch I did was okay but had I looked around at more reference pictures of him I would have realized his neck is nowhere near as long as I first mistook it to be, in fact it is the opposite, I should have drawn him with his slightly large square head nuzzled into his collar. Oh well.
