Good Grief! It’s already the 5th of August, and this month’s challenge hasn’t been posted yet. As many people are on vacation this month, let’s make it a simple one.
Take an image, trace it in Synfig to make a cartoon version of it. Extra points if we can recognise what it is, double points if it moves
Music and sounds by the freesound.org community: nicStage, acclivity, aguasonic, spiderjerusalem, aarongnp.

Hello
Because you said “recognize”, I tried a portrait.
For it’ is not difficult to recognize, I chose a very famous
He moves little, just smile.
It is not really good, but it’s the best I can. http://www.vimeo.com/14399009 obama.sifz (39.7 KB)
Excellent entries this month!
Animtim - He looked soooo familiar but I had to cheat in the end. It would be on the tip of my tongue and then the Gif would cycle and I’d lose it. It would have been a lot easier if you’d included the piano in the picture TinyURL.com/343emss
nice one mad0. don’t worry about the filename being visible… the guy’s face (all due respect) is well recognizable further improvements could involved messing with the “outline width” tool if you want to spend some more time there, but that’s pure cosmetic!
Animtim: your piano player looks machiavelous… don’t know why but reminds me of Ursula. Thanks for the smile though, and congrats on the tracing.
