Photoshop: Caricature Using Liquify Tool

Today we will be using the Photoshop Liquify tool to create a Caricature of a famous person. A caricature is to make or give a comically or grotesquely exaggerated representation of someone or something. Generally you exaggerate something they are known for (Angelina Jolies lips, JLO's butt, Will Smiths ears, etc.).

Here are some examples of caricatures:

Your first task is to think of a celebrity that you know well.  Then locate a large picture of them for the project.  When you have the image in Photoshop and you have it as "cleaned up" as you want [i.e. removing background stuff], go to FILTER > LIQUIFY.

Here's my take on Charlie Sheen:
And my Mitt Romney:
And Obama:
And, of course, Justin Bieber:
 
And Mily Cyrus:
Or how about Morgan Freeman?
Taylor Swift?
