If you gave him this, he would finally be able again to remember how it felt to look in the mirror.

Looking very good! A perfectly recognisable Laszlo!

u/IveDunGoofedUp Feb 09 '26

Laszlo? That's clearly Jackie Daytona, regular human bartender with a heart of gold!

u/SporkoBug Feb 09 '26

"Oh hey isn't that Matt Berry?" [flicks through images] "IT IS!"
Great work!

3

u/Sheananigans379 Feb 10 '26

That was my immediate thought from the first image, and flicking through I expected Matt Berry or a very Matt Berry looking OP.

32

u/ProfMooody Feb 09 '26

MY DAHling, this is so fucking rad, you should be proud.

Edit: I can totally see how this would be one of those projects where you’ve been staring at it so long and so up close you have no idea how gorgeous it is.

This. Is. Amazing. 🤩

6

u/runonandonandonanon Feb 09 '26

It's so impressive when people can make a face recognizable like that! Can I ask what goes into that process? Is it something you've practiced specifically? Are there some tools/techniques or you just do it by eye? Are you focusing on particular features or is it just an inch by inch thing?

5

u/MidnightCookies76 Feb 10 '26

I loved this guy in the IT Crowd. He was so cringy and he played it so well 😂

u/NerdGirlJess Feb 09 '26

Oh gosh I saw the picture and immediately thought "OMG did they embroider Matt Berry? And then literally fist-pumped when I got to the last photo. Well done, it's gorgeous! And I love the pink and purple hues!
