I bought a pretty cool book yesterday at the Disney Studio Store called Disney Treasures. There are quite a few photos of Walt Disney and I couldn't help doing a caricature. I'm not sure if I pushed the features beyond recognition or not far enough but this was my favorite of about five that I did.

Hey Fred,
Not to be critical or anything...but I guess one of the most striking features about Walt was his eyebrows-they pretty much defined his face. I think in yours they are a bit smallish. But it's still awesome though, and heck I couldn't do any better.
Keep it up pal!

Great caricature, though I think Nick might be right about the eyebrow thing. I think it's also a Walt tradmark to have one eyebrow slightly more raised than the other, like in this photo: http://i.timeinc.net/time/time100/images/main_disney.jpg
Your caricature of Walt still captures his likeness, though. I knew who it was at first glance.
Why not caricature your other infamous boss, KAY!!!!????

Heya Nick, please, be critical!! I have a huge amount of respect for your drawing skills and any critisism you offer is greatly appreciated. I'll take your suggestion and give it another go, I did a few more before I read your post so please don't think I'm ignoring your suggestions!
Luke, you're another genius cartoonist who I have a ton of respect for and while I'm familiar with that expression it seems that alot of caricatures you see of him are the one brow up one down. I thought I'd go with something different but I guess why throw out something that sells the viewer on who the person is, right? So, next caricature....
Fred
Same with Luke and Nick.
Although, personally, I couldn't do much better.
The drawing is AWESOME, though, and I did realize who it was immediately.
