oh god, do I remember those "How To Draw Manga" books. even in my weeb stage, i hated those fucking books, because they were so bad. everyone would just trace them, and the books' content was just shit overall, and because they were all done by white people who had *some* experience, they were 98% complete shit

>>6944039

Tried editing the face. It is kinda a lazy edit, though. I moved the eyes to the middle of the face and put them on the same line, I redraw-ed the nose and lips and cut a tiny part of the chin. I wish I could move the eyes a little bit more. She isn't that bad, she is good at drawing, but should learn basic proportions.

The eyes may be a little high, but these edits are much worse and lose the scoffing expression the artist was depicting. It’s obviously not supposed to be an "ohhh, I'm so cute" picture but an observation on the cattiness that is EGL.

I don't know, I like >>6945308 more than the original.

And the eyes weren't just "a little high". Her eyes had a weird shape. Her eyebrows are too close to the eyes, the coloring/shadowing on the face is off. And god knows what the mouth and lips is trying to achieve.

On a good note though, the coloring looks great.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jul 1 21:14:02 2013 No.6945537 >>6945342 Haha. I remember seeing it for the first time here (I'm too lazy to go to btb) and I said the same thing. This poem requires bongos.

These are both so much better than the original. The original had much better execution than some of the terrible things that get submitted, but her face was god-awful and ruined everything.

On another subject, remember when egl had a mascot girl and all the fanart with lolis in it had to depict the mascot?
