Challenge 297: Nick Clegg's makeover
The big news in the UK these days is all about the forthcoming General Election. The surprise concerns Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrats: although his party has long been seen as very much the third-place no-hopers, his performance in a series of televised leadership debates has turned him into a serious contender. So much so, that earlier this week The Guardian commissioned me to produce a series of images of Clegg as major world leaders. The trouble is, Nick Clegg has a rather lacklustre, bland appearance, not helped by his fondness for dull, bland suits. How might we give him a makeover to make him more appealing to the voting public? High res is here.  |

En France, on en entend beaucoup parler, de ce monsieur! 
La surprise de l'année, c'est ce qu'on entend et qu'on lit... Mais depuis deux jours, c'est fini, Monsieur Clegg est oublié... à cause de la Belgique! _________________ Mais je me connais, je lâcherais pas l'affaire.... Je vais piquer de grève comme on pique une colère... Plus têtue que tous les vieil homme et la mer... Pour que continue le combat ordinaire! |

Re: Challenge 297: Nick Clegg's makeover
haha according to the Daily Mail and if you type in Twitter #nickcleggsfault Nick Clegg is responsible from all bad things happening including cancer. His worse crime was to cheat during the recent TV Debates by using Facts and Coherent argument to win! 
I did this animation yesterday to highlight the middle of the road politics they all seem to be fighting over 
But if I have some more time I will do another one for the compo. Becky |

Heh! Great animation Maiden! :lol: Of course Cleggs worst crime is that he is a bally FOREIGNER - or at least married to one ... maybe we should see his birth certificate _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |

Hello, Women shall vote for our candidate now. The problem is that male should be jealous and will may be not vote for him. But statistics says there are 52% of women vs 48% of men in the human race. It will be tight but with gays' votes, he will win. Bonne semaine  _________________ This is only Love |

Thanks, Anna. It looks like you've captured the self-image of politicians everywhere. Eva, your guy is so appealing and sincere, I'm going to vote for him by absentee ballot. _________________ Is it necessary? Does it work? |
