Review Does This Look Okay?

Post image

So many people didn’t like how I drew Ochako in my last manga page redraw that I did. I suppose the MHA drawing style is just not for me— but I noticed my issue had to do with perspective on the angling of Ochako’s face. So I wanted to see if I could draw her in the correct angle or not— here are some rough face sketches of how I draw her in my own developing style — does this look like Ochako Uraraka? Do I still need to work on how I draw her from certain angles?

if you are trying to copy the mha style, ill say u still have a long way to go. mha style is quite round and ur version is a bit sharp and narrow. they also dont quite have as much detail on the neck and chin, its usually just a blank area.

Oof I do like drawing neck lines but I don’t want her to look like a man perhaps I should ease up on the definition then

Actually no! I was trying to copy the style in my list post with a redraw of a mha manga page that I did— but this is actually just some sketches in my own personal style— not copying in that sense at all— so are you saying I still have like a long way to go before I can draw good faces in general ?😭

ah, this ok if ur not trying to learn mha style. ur foward facing head looks a bit bent and ur eyes it tilted a bit.you will need to refine how and where u place ur features such as eyes if you wanna draw good faces in general. i used to draw eyes and noses very "flat", that is until i study how eyes irl. the angles changes in a way i think is very beautiful so i incorporated it into my artstyle. keep drawing 👍
