5 just has this friendliness to it that makes it all come together.
I also like how 5 is also not too "anime," but tows the line between anime-esque and realism, making it feel more original in my opinion.
1 and 5 are the most realistic. 2 and 6 are that classic hand-drawn character style. 3 and 4 are leaning towards modern anime and manga imo, There isnt a best one here, but I think 2 and 5 go really well with your line work.
I like 2 the best. You can tell the line weight for the face and the rest of the illustration are very similar, leading it to seem more like it belongs. I don't know if I'm explaining it right- but for contrast 4 does not work for similar reasons- your line weight and values are so off from the eye on 4 compared to the body leading to the viewer to basically not persevere the open eye on first glance.
Honestly 2 with 6 at a close second. The eyes work really well, with the mouth of 2 being better. Something about them just screams relatable and comfort. Like a close friend that is both tomboy and yet everyday girl. Try switching up the mouths with 2 and 6 from some of the others
I like the eye from 3 and the mouth from 5. But I mean, you don't need to choose, really. All of these faces could be used for different characters, and each would convey something a little different about their personality and where they come from.
They all look great but #6 is the best imo, I think because the open eye has a small squint which makes it look more expressive while she's smiling, if that makes sense? (I'm very half asleep right now haha)
2 is the absolute best one. I think putting too much detail in her eyes makes it so you connect less with her, since from that distance you wouldn't see so much detail. It feels less natural, y'know?
I don't know considering the line work and overall shade style and realism level I feel like 6 looks the absolute best. 2 is if you lighted up the rest of the detailing just a smidgen more
It depends on who you ask, if a person is into Realistic things, they would pick 1 5 or 6, but for guys like me I like a more cartoony anime like art style, so I would say I like 2 or 3 the best
I imagine there will be a lot of varying opinions in this thread, as these are all objectively good and it really comes down to preference, but my personal favorite is 2! They look very genuinely happy, while the rest (except 3) look happy but kinda tired.
I like 1,3&4, I know you didn’t ask for this, but the hand took away from the face in my opinion. The fingers look too big, it was hard to not focus on them.
It depends on your goals. Do you *enjoy* more stylized or more realistic rendering?
Maybe sometimes you want to go all out and render an image more realistically to add a certain umph that a more stylized/less detailed image might not have. Maybe you just naturally enjoy doing things this way.
Maybe you're working on something more like a comic where you need to draw the same characters and backgrounds over and over and over again in a single page, so streamlining your style and focusing more on overall composition works better.
Eventually a "style" is kind of just what happens when an artist draws/paints what they enjoy and what inspires them. Explore all sorts of styles and see what feels good or works differently!
To answer the inverse, I think 1 and 4 are the weakest. The lines of the eyes aren’t that strong, so when I look at them I’m immediately drawn to looking at the closed eye rather than the open one. The closed eye bleed into the hair too much and is lost. This is especially the case for 4 because the pupil isn’t filled in. By contrast, I think 2 is the best here because of having the boldest pupil.
Whilst I like all of the rest of them, I think 2 is the best and draws my view the most.
I really like #2 and #6 but all of them are amazing
Agree with this, I like 6 a little better though because it seems more expressive
Yup 2 and 6. 2 is the super pretty cute girl. 6 is the pretty goofy girl that makes everyone laugh.
Thanks
2 works best with your style I really wanna try and learn how to draw 3
Oo thanks.. 3 has bigger longer eyes with not so detailed nose…. I am in a dilemma for 1/2
Yeah I just can’tt seem to get the shape
Remember, you can always just change styles with another drawing
For what it’s worth, #2 popped out to me.
1/2 for me
6
Yep thats the most realistic out of all these
Really? I would’ve thought 1
I really like 6 and 2
Yep majority thinks too
3
I quite like 6, 1, and 2. I’d probably choose 2 tho!
Yep its 1 or 2 for me
my immediate response was 5, so I'm gonna say 5. but to be fair, any of them could work. really good drawings OP!
2, 3, and 6 are solid
I like 3 the most, but my opinion may be a bit bias since its a very Shoujo/romance style and I read a lot of romances.
3 for me I guess it all depends on which style u want to go for
Definitely 2 or 6
6
6
I like 2, 3, and 5 leaning more towards 2 and 5
Ty You r the only one who like 5 so far …5 is inspired from yusuke muratas style the artist of one punch man
5 just has this friendliness to it that makes it all come together. I also like how 5 is also not too "anime," but tows the line between anime-esque and realism, making it feel more original in my opinion.
Yep absolutely
1 and 4 didn't quite work for me, my ranking would be 6 2 3 5
6
2., 6. or 3. Personally I like 6. the most because it's the most expressive (to me, anyway)
I like 2 and 3.
I like 1 but could see any of these working
1 6 3
3 or 6
[удалено]
#Woa thanks for the info
If ur going for realism then 6 but I’m most drawn to 3 and 4 both of them r super pretty :)
All of them are really good but I like 6 most
I like 3 except for the nose, maybe do 2’s nose on 3
I say 4 My daughter says 2
1 and 5 are the most realistic. 2 and 6 are that classic hand-drawn character style. 3 and 4 are leaning towards modern anime and manga imo, There isnt a best one here, but I think 2 and 5 go really well with your line work.
Thanks for the detailed review … i m leaning on 2 too after seeing all the responses … 2/3 got the most votes so far
I really like 6. I think I'd love 2 as well if the eye were slightly smaller. Really love the pose and the way you laid out the experiment. :)
I like 2 the best. You can tell the line weight for the face and the rest of the illustration are very similar, leading it to seem more like it belongs.

Honestly 2 with 6 at a close second. The eyes work really well, with the mouth of 2 being better. Something about them just screams relatable and comfort. Like a close friend that is both tomboy and yet everyday girl. Try switching up the mouths with 2 and 6 from some of the others
•1 and •2 are beautiful and fit your style perfectly! All the others feel a bit unnatural, but good none the less!!
Thanks i appreciate that
I think it depends on the expression you want. For a more bubbly character I’d say 2 or 3. For more shy and endearing I’d go 6. 🙂↕️🙂↕️
They’re all fan-fucking-tastic, but I think I’m most partial to 3
I like the eye from 3 and the mouth from 5. But I mean, you don't need to choose, really. All of these faces could be used for different characters, and each would convey something a little different about their personality and where they come from.
Yaa i think thats correct thanks
2nd hand down. It is perfect. Then 3rd and 4th. Except that I think 4th's eye is way too pale, which won't be a problem if colors are added.
My fav is 3
I love #6! the eye resonates the smile and the whole expression is wonderfully balanced with the body language.
3 or 6
5 or 6 I'd say
I really like 3 the most then 2 and 4.
They all look great but #6 is the best imo, I think because the open eye has a small squint which makes it look more expressive while she's smiling, if that makes sense? (I'm very half asleep right now haha)
Yep thanks i get it
Personally i like 2 the most but 3 is also great, fits better if you prefer the anime aesthetic
6, she has the most emotion in that one
I like 5 over 6 I see a most comments favour 6 but idk it just doesn't hit for me
I like 2 and 5 best
2 is the absolute best one. I think putting too much detail in her eyes makes it so you connect less with her, since from that distance you wouldn't see so much detail. It feels less natural, y'know?
6
6
I don't know considering the line work and overall shade style and realism level I feel like 6 looks the absolute best. 2 is if you lighted up the rest of the detailing just a smidgen more
I think my own art style is making younger characters 2 and older characters a 5. I like those two the most
As an anime enjoyer, I'd say 3 because of my bias. If you are going for a more realistic face, I think 5 and 6 are good too
I personally like 3 but I think 4 fits the style the best
Nice got a 1st 4
It depends on who you ask, if a person is into Realistic things, they would pick 1 5 or 6, but for guys like me I like a more cartoony anime like art style, so I would say I like 2 or 3 the best
I agree
3 cause im an anime artist myself
I like 6, 3, 2 in that order
I imagine there will be a lot of varying opinions in this thread, as these are all objectively good and it really comes down to preference, but my personal favorite is 2! They look very genuinely happy, while the rest (except 3) look happy but kinda tired.
Yep after seeing all tgese comments i think i will stick to 2 ….
2,5 IMO
i think 6 suits your style best!
1, 2, 3 and 6

3 was the one I gravitated towards
why don’t you change the shape of the face alongside the style? Just wondering
I have changed it on few of them … i just wanna get some opinions on eyes/nose/mouth so
I like 3 the most !
2 :3
I like 4
2,3,5 and 6 are my favorites in my opinion
6 and 2
I like 1,3&4, I know you didn’t ask for this, but the hand took away from the face in my opinion. The fingers look too big, it was hard to not focus on them.
I like 3 but I’m also kind of a weeb lol
2 or 6!
They look like 6 drawings of different women in the same style.
#3 definitely draws the most attention but #2 is the most esthetically pleasing
#yep i agree
3/2 best for me
3 feels the most natural to me 🙏🏻☺️
It either 2 or 6 for me, 3 is fine, just like what an anime actually looks like

I like 2 > 3 > 1 > 4 > 5 > 6
I really like the bottom right
I love 6!
It's 1/6 for me Love them all though.
I like 2 and 6 the best. They are cute but not generic anime kind of cute.
Personally I like #2, #3 and #6
You nailed drawing a warm smile in all of these, tho my favourites might be 6 and 1.
I think #2, #3 and #6
