People have been drawing Shrek from memory – 19 with differing layers of success
As it was celebrating its 20th anniversary – and being ripped to bits by a Guardian columnist – Shrek became a talking point on Twitter on Tuesday.
The very funny @Brainmage decided to set people a challenge.
It looks like Shrek discourse is happening, so it's time for my favourite thing: DRAW SHREK FROM MEMORY. Can draw? Good! Can't draw? EVEN BETTER!!
Don't you DARE look at a Shrek beforehand. Draw him! Post him! Cram the picture with half remembered details!#DrawShrekFromMemory pic.twitter.com/tKKvjfSnKR

Naturally, there were varying degrees of success, with some offerings veering towards Fungus the Bogeyman, Dobbie the house elf or an alien Mitchell brother – but they’re all good fun, so we thought we’d share some that stood out.
