Caveat: I have less than 0% drawing/image/artistic talent. That is the domain of the gifted like our own resident, Eyesbleed. But, I can employ pre-fabricated bits and strain at trying to cook up an image. Anyway, here are some attempts.......hope no one is offended or think I did anybody short or unjustly, I only tried with my feeble left hemisphere to concoct: Starting with John Winston Lennon:

As "Let It Be" playes softly on my radio in another room down the hall, I post this attempt to evoke George Harrison:

And below I take a stab at William----oh, no bad wording. I hardly ever even pick up a knife and fork to eat! But I do eat. I just use my fingers! I mean, I herewith attempt a sketch rendering of Sir Paul in the 1970 time period:

But, while I'm at it, can I remember james Paul in the least? Is there a remote faint idea of that? Well, it is this, though this may be wrong in certain points, but for this late hour and a quick fiddle with the parameters, I get something like this, next to my rendering of William:

Not too shabby, Doc, and better than most of the police "wanted" posters I've seen when they catch the guy, and my invariable reaction is, "Huh?! That looks nothing like him!". I'm always amazed when someone sees the suspect, and remembers the face from a wanted poster.

Thanks, it was kinda fun. I did some of my friends (who will never speak to me again) and myself, as younger and thinner, and also a truer (sadly) but more contemporary version. But those will remain in the "classified" files for now, as they should, you see. But here is my sad, sad, tragic attempt at Ringo. It fails so miserably, that it is not Ringo, but some Golem or another from my murky skill: And here is a much better attempt by somebody else who tried it and saved it to that police sketch website:(They did a pretty nice job). At least I can tell who this is meant to be, Mine above looks a bit extra-terrestrial. An earthling version: I think I got the head shape a little better, but they got the features right, which I totally missed in spades. I will try again, unless good taste or a web restraining order from Jojo precludes it. The selection of hair do's could be better. Also chins, cheeks, and facial lines around the mouth and eyes. Well, alas, it's good enough for a very vague sketch. You could never make a solid ID out of any of these pictures.
