Sweet. I know a lot of artists use the face curve thing, though I'm not an artist, so I'm not familiar with the intricacies.


Yea, using that trick would probably help me, but I'm not sure if I'm at a point where I could use it comfortably.
I draw without any guidelines most of the time, no shapes, no 3d objects, just free hand. So trying to use them can feel weird at times. Plus I don't really know how it works lel.

The face looks like Saitama. The features make up a very small area and there's a lot of empty space.


That just helped me figure out what's odd.
The eye on the left could be shifted right a little. I think....
<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Notably better, but something seems off and I can't tell what it is.


maybe the shoulders or body proportions/angle? Oh wait, I think i have the breast's a bit low on the chest.

Oh, i forgot to mention, I still have no good clue on how to draw ears.

all in all, I'm guessing.
<Snipped quote by Stabby>

The face is a bit empty, but other than that, I like it.


what do you mean by empty?
<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Good: The knee and leg on the right side of the viewer. The finger lengths in comparison to each other.
Meh: Top of hair proportions. The X'd out eyes to the right of the final one and the perspective of the curve of the forehead into the top of the head on it.
Bad: Everything else.


Alright. I'm actually surprised that the knee looks good. Hair is still something I'm working on, and I still need to practice proportions/anatomy, so the everything else part makes sense. It probably doesn't help that I'm slowly learning and practicing the basics as I go.
Oh, I drew this on the ride home btw. It's probably not the best, but I like it more then the initial sketch.

Do you want to know what you did well or what you did bad?


oh trust me, I want both. Only started drawing 4-5 years ago, so I know it ain't great.
<Snipped quote by Stabby>

The hand on hip stands out to me as really well done for the perspective. The mouth, however, seems like it could use some work, and the head seems a bit too tall. I'm not very good at drawing humans myself, so take what I say with a grain of salt; those are just my observations.


Would you believe me if i told you that i saw that done in another piece of art and just copied it off memory?

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Pretty good. I would suggest working most on eyes, since those are what really carry the message.


I actually practice drawing eyes more often then not, since it was one of my weaker points when starting out.

Over all, thanks for the tips, but I'm probably not going to draw her in that style. It leans a bit too much towards a realistic style then I would like, since I want to make a cartoon/anime style. That, and in general I'm still not quite done yet, so the design might change.
I've already started working on drawing her in an style similar to the sketch in the bottom right.
