    Looks great. Very good caricature. Might want to consider the logo on the shirt a little differently. The placement is a little forced to our right rather than it being centered on his center line of his abdomen, and you might want to bow it out slightly. The simple perspective of just making it larger to one side and angling it that you gave it is not visually convincing that it is on his shirt. It's on fabric not a flat plane so it would have a bit more subtle movement in it.

    One way to achieve the perspective is to draw some contour lines approximating the tubular volume of the torso and use that as a framework to guide it onto like the skin on an old wooden biplane. Just looking at that logo it's so complex it could be daunting to finesse it. But this being computer, you have the tools to make it work. Would be a shame to do this great illustration and then to see the logo isn't working on par with the rest of the picture.

    But the caricature is fantastic!!! No kidding. You've really gotten very good at them.
