  • anniemac, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Hands-down the coolest company portraits I've ever seen.

    I heard that the face painter was taking a first-stab at some of those characters. She did a phenomenal job, particularly with the shading: http://cmac.smugmug.com/gallery/2504559#131481602-L-LB .

  • MSTK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+41...is that StrongBad?
    • Kookami, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1Wolverine.

      EDIT: Oh wait, you mean that one, yeah... argh
    • onethumb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Yes, that's Craig Meakin as StrongBad. :)
    • dacheetah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2lmfao. I was going to ask the same question.
      That's an awesome face paint job.
      Dugg. (And not just for the strongbad one either...)
  • WiZZLa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12I know a few companies that do this too (for internal portraits on the company intranet.) Generally it's a window to how open and laid back a company is, which many times means happy and subsequently hard working staff.
    • scotticus, on 10/12/2007, -15/+2If any one of my coworkers approached me with face paint, I'd ***** punch them.
    • flxstr, on 10/12/2007, -12/+2you'd probably want your co-workers ***** anyways, you fag.
    • bazuden, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7@scotticus

      You'd punch them with your *****??
    • DharmaTurtle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1How traumatizing.
  • XxjdxX, on 10/12/2007, -14/+4Liberacci GAY!
  • alexvalentine, on 10/12/2007, -10/+4Umm, after seeing that I will definitely be sticking with Flickr. ;)
  • bdpf, on 10/12/2007, -12/+2
    Need a dig down picture section.

    Why is it cool.

    Should see the apes I worked with, The paint would make them pretty.
  • deleteyourself, on 10/12/2007, -21/+7wow, I hope to never do anything ever like this when I start my company. This is completely and utterly embarrassing.
    • bulbboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16I don't suppose it was compulsory.
      Much better than all having to wear a brightly coloured shirt with a name tag, and a fake plastered on smile.
    • Flamekebab, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Is it?
      It depends on your team.

      I can imagine doing something like this at my company, for example.
    • superal1394, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I can see digg/rev3 doing this
    • hiPpymIck, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5dare Digg to do it for this page
      http://digg.com/about
  • tristan55555, on 10/12/2007, -9/+0Wonder if they could be sued by Marvell or DC for using these characters...?
  • Teddystiltskins, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6V for Vendetta was a great movie... like the costume and face paints!!!

  • cesclaveria, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6The V looks really good.
    • superal1394, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3hahaha, I saw that I was just like, "V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

      im a loser, digg me down if you must
  • snotrokit, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I am trying really really hard to picture my boss painted up as V or strongbad. Just aint happenin.

    But, damn, that rocks.
  • machinegunopera, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2This is neat stuff.
  • amal3k, on 10/12/2007, -9/+6@everyone who was dugg down

    yeah, i ***** agree.

    what a pernicious flock of losers
  • sunchild, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9I am so glad I work at a company that affords me some dignity.
  • redbone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ha, that's awesome. I like Martian Manhunter the best.
  • charlie55, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1holy smokes what a bunch of idiot clowns.
  • natophonic, on 10/12/2007, -5/+5why can't they just wear ties? these are abvious america-haters who should be tortured at gitmo!
  • Zakir, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Not your father's company portraits, eh? "[...] with my co-founder and father Chris MacAskill as J’onn J’onnz aka Martian Manhunter." ... those would be your father's company portraits.
  • Woknblues, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4actually, from a web based photo sharing company, I would expect this.
  • scifipirate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yeah this totally deosn't look like my fathers portraits.. wtf quit talkin ***** about my dad

  • ToastyBagel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3OK, this is just damn cool. Whoever the artist was that the airbrushing did and EXCELLENT job on almost all of the people~
  • Slipdisc, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3seems a bit gay
  • sensibledriver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"I got it, Bob....we won't pay them much and work them like dogs. To give them a false sense of worth and pride, we'll let them pretend they are in a perpetual state of youth...yeah! Give them some nerf guns, buy them lunch here and there and these losers will eat gravel for us!"

    "Brilliant!!!"

    "The best part- we'll get them to pose as comic book characters and laugh at the pics in the board room. The rest of the world will get a kick out of it too."


  • Yondelldude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21/2 dugg for strong bad

  • investr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Clearly the Holy Grail for why you got picked on as a kid.
