Oh damn, oh shit
Its tutorial time 8D Cuz I have nothing else on my plate, obviously (I'm lying). Anyways I was feeling like not working on comics so I did this. As always, feel free to trace or whatever you need to do. Sorry if it is less in depth, this is more about the shapes and how to arrange them on the face vs an exhaustive listing of a bunch of details. Hopefully this will give you a place to begin so you can make your own variety, instead of having to rely on others and reffing (if you even need the help).
I'd like to add, this is exactly how I draw faces. If you like that and want to emulate it for some godawful reason, go ahead, I guess (though I strongly advise you to develop your own style). But hopefully the principles are basic enough to be applied to any style you like.

;w; Omg, this tutorial honestly helped me out a bunch! I have a piece of paper that I've been drawing on since 8 PM off and on, and about thirty minutes ago, I drew the noses like pyramids, and because of it, my drawings improved. Anyways, thanks a lot.

Gah, this is sooo helpful! All my faces end up looking the same which really bugs me, especially when I KNOW that my characters look nothing alike! Cheers!

I have no idea XD I don't think it will be easy since it is such a big size... maybe if you can download it into a program, then cut it in half and print the halves?

Okay.
Thanks.

I laughed so hard when I read this:
"If you are lazy you can go the anime way and make some ugly shovel to slap everything on..."
I've been trying to draw anime faces for a while, just to get an idea of what the style is about. Now, I've come to the point where I want to draw differently-shaped faces, so I appreciate where this comes from.
Thank you for the tutorial; you have some great pointers!

No problem XD I am guilty of many shovelfaces in my time, I'm glad you are seeing that it's not the only way to do things...
š: 0 ā©: 1
Me too! ^_^;
But now comes the hard part: actually making something your own. >_<
Harder said than done, I think.

This is really helpful. I've been looking forgood tutorial like this-specifically one that encouraged styles outside of the anime/manga style- and this exceeded my expectations. Thanks for this.
