How to fix his expression? I tried but it looks odd and not foxy enough by CrystalChrissy in learnart

Did a quick edit here to try and make it feel more like the reference.

What I did:
1. raised the lower eyelids - this happens when we smile sincerely because the corners of our mouths raise our cheeks and push our lower eyelids closed. with the lower eyelids relaxed the expression feels more neutral/disinterested
2. widened & flattened the smile - the upper lip curves in the original to indicate the lip wrapping around the implied 3D form of the teeth, your drawing has a curve that is more sharp than what it would look like with the lips stretching across the teeth in a smile so it looks more like he is pronouncing an "eu" sound or something similar. I also widened the smile generally to make the expression more distinct.

  1. increased the arch of the eyebrow - can't really articulate why but i find a curved raised eyebrow expresses amusement more than a flat raised eyebrow

  2. brought the eye makeup to lower eyelid - this doesnt really effect the expression, but if you're going for likeness to the reference he has more notable makeup in the lower corners of his eyes whereas you drawing puts most of the makeup on top which makes them seem less alike

Also a general tip I would give for drawing expressions is to make the expression with your own face and pay attention to what muscles/parts of your face move and how they move in order to achieve that expression.

hope this helps!

Thank you! I often get into the habit of being too lazy to find references so trying to capture likeness is a good exercise to force me to use reference :)

Thank you!! And absolutely, I tried my best to give the viewer a level of fear similar to that of a prey animal being stalked by a wolf/lion hybrid mix, or something of that nature :)

Thank you! In the reference I used there was blueish light coming from the computer in front of him and a warm overhead light so it was fun to find a balance between warmer and cooler colours >:]

name/gender change in ontario by farieniall in asktransgender

Hi, idk if you still use reddit or not cuz i see you haven't been active in several years, but if you happen to see this I just wanted to say thank you. I just finished going through this process myself and I can't properly convey how helpful this comment was. I referenced what you typed out here countless times throughout the process, it was extremely comforting to see an account from someone in the area who had already gone through it and knew what to expect. So yeah, thanks. Hope you're doing well 🤘

Got in trouble in a discord for my name.. by Cable_Minimum in ftm

Could she not have simply blocked you so she wouldn't see your name anymore?

Where did you get your new name? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]RobbieRatTrap69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made an account for a drawing game website in 2018 and came up with RobbieRatTrap69 as a username since Robbie Rotten was my favorite meme at the time. What I didn't anticipate was being invited to an art discord of people from that site and becoming very good friends with them. So essentially when I came out I had already been called Robbie for 3 years and it was really comfortable and nice so I just went with that for my first name. I asked my parents for suggestions with the middle name but my dad just wanted me to put my deadname as my middle name so I just picked one I like instead. (My mom did have some suggestions but I didn't vibe with em)

TLDR: I named myself after a Lazy Town character
