The pic I attached is called a "model sheet" or settei. The link was in the sticky:
https://setteidreams.net/settei/
It's used by anime artists to make a character from all angles, to keep their hair and face and clothes consistent in the anime.
It's VERY useful to use as a base for your drawing because of the "all angles of the face" thing.

Just search some animay you like in that link and pick up some reference sheets.

I love this drawing you posted, anon. Her face is so dominant. You're nailing the haughty small/squinty eyes look, I'm actually gonna save that.

I'll watch the videos, thank you.

what helped me was understanding that, as the character turns, the eye further away from you stays the same height, but gets thinner and thinner due to perspective. look at the pic I attached to this post, bottom middle face. The eyes are as tall as each other, but one becomes quite thin. Also always add a pupil, a black dot in the center, to your eyes. Shade the eyes dark at the top and lighter at the bottom of it. Don't make the eyelash too thick and don't connect it all the way at the bottom (see this pic again). Also always add a little line that's the "hood of the eye", it's the "_" kind of line between the lash and the eyebrow.

Start with smaller eyes, it's easier to put in the iris and make it look good if the eye is smaller. and watch mikeymegamega's youtube video on drawing eyes he does it in real time, very helpful

horrible, unhelpful advice. "draw trillions of things" is so stupid, everyone KNOWS they have to draw more. use your expertise instead to point out what to focus on and explain the things you've learned. Don't just say "draw xd" like you've discovered something there. Fucking retard.
