The courtroom sketch artist tasked with drawing pop superstar Taylor Swift faced mockery this week over his less-than-flattering renderings of the singer.
But he's hardly the first courtroom artist to turn in questionable portraits of celebs during their time in court.
High-profile stars like Tom Brady, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan have all fallen victim to unflattering courtroom sketches - check out the worst offenders below:
"A person like Taylor Swift, who is very pretty - has perfectly proportioned dimensions on the face - is actually much harder [to sketch]," Jeff Kandyba, the artist in Swift's sexual assault lawsuit against a local DJ, told Fox 21 Denver after his sketches made world news.
"I'm always drawing people in my head and they always look way better in my head than they do on paper," he said.
"It's hard. Some people are just much easier to draw than others."
The Australian site cited a 'heightened threat level' as the issue.
