Default Looking for pics of Hobo/Tramp Clowns

Howdy guys and gals,

New to the forums and looking to create a Hobo character. Is there a good place I could see pics of other hobo/tramp clowns to get costume/make-up ideas?

My goal is to be more sight gag / physical comedy with no talking. I have some ideas brewing but getting stumped on best way to go about make-up.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated..

Well, www.coai.org has their competition winner pictures from the convention in April. That might help some. The regional clown associations usually post their comp. winner's pics as well. (There is a page on COAI's site that links to at least some of the regional clown association's websites.) You will find a couple of pictures on Pricilla Mooseburger Originals Look through the gallery here as well as the membership list. You will see a wide variety of styles.

Where are you located?

I'm suprised you haven't taken him to the nursing home instead of Willace once in a while. I like Hobo Bob, he looks like he is really enjoying life and enjoying himself.
