I've been doing a lot of drawing. I'm trying to get a character designed for a game for Mory. It requires a female main characte
Character design is always difficult, and drawing faces is difficult and a giant hurdle that I don't felt I have ever really gotten over is drawing female faces and really understand what makes them female.
So this is just a big pile of female face and face drawing research that I have been doing.
Now there is something special about these drawings. They look like pencil but the aren't.
I just graduated from school and received as a graduation gift an Asus Ep121 tablet computer. It has a wacom pen built into the screen so that I can draw directly on it with pressure sensitivity and very precise line work.
I am really loving it. I don't feel at all hindred by the tablet anymore. I'm still working on getting some really good animation software for it, but I have use a trial of TVpaint and it is going to be great to create 2d animation on.

I don't know, almost all of these look awesome to me. But if you say you're failing to capture some "femaleness" or somesuch, I won't contradict you. Obviously you understand appearances in a way I don't.
When I wrote that I meant that in the passed I felt I had difficulty. I agree with you that a lot of these faces look pretty good and look feminine.
I'm finding a huge advantage of the tablet over paper is that I am able to zoom in for fine difficult details. Drawing nice eyes on a character is a lot easier when the eye is 5 centimeters across instead of 3 millimeters.
