What Kind Of Best Girl in Romance Mangas

This post right here is just for fun and for assignment. Please do not be offended.

   So, best girl huh? You might think of a loli (no), a megane, or even the big sister type right? Everyone has their own peculiar taste but if you ask me what kind of best girl is the best, I'll answer: strong girl.

   What I meant by strong girls are female main characters (in romance comic) that are stronger mentally and physically than any normal girls. 
   With stereotypes such as 'Girls are weak and always needs to be protected' 'Girls are pure and delicate' 'Girls can cry but boys can't' strong girls are very hard to find in romance comic, that's why I value them and appreciated the author if i do found romance comic with strong female MC. Because. Most ROMANCE comic either has very weaaaaaaak or normal female MC. Theres no in-between.

   You know what I hate the most?? Old romance mangas with super weak female characters. For example:

1. Fem MC got saved by MC
Fem MC: *falls in love*
or
2. Fem MC's eyes met with MC
Fem MC: *ba-fkin-dump*

   You know wot?? That's so stupid. Who in the world will fall in love with just that? I meant, you and them are total strangers. How could you just???
Enough complaints-- let's get back to discussing my favorite type of fem leads...

   Strong. What is strong? Strong is having the power to move heavy weights or perform other physically demanding tasks. But that's not only it,, Good strong female leads are often (either) stronger mentally and physically. They keep their pride and not go around falling in love with people. 

   They think very carefully and rationally. It's not easy to make them fall in love, so it takes progress. AND that's what we search for in story. PLOTS. Strong female leads are more memorable for me (maybe because they're my favorite lol) but I think it can be the opposite for others, in the end, it depends on tastes.

Simple Anime Anatomy for Female and Male

    Here I'll explain what I have learn from drawing for 5 years and,, uh,, well,,, Female's and male's body is different (duh). I'll show you some tips for y'all beginner artists that just started to draw anime especially.

We will start from the top of the body, 

The Head

Female anime head tends to be rounder and smaller (possibly for the moe-tification) but there are artists that draw the female head like the male's they're more likely to the more realistic style but still in anime (i hope you get what I mean). But here is the differences between the female's and male's head according to what I learn:



-Female animu heads are rounder and have big eyes. People like to add eyelashes to  female characters so they are easier to tell the differences.

-Male anime characters head tends to be longer(?), and usually when they draw the nose they make it longer (not just a dot). Male characters have smaller eyes but no eyelashes.

Music Recommendation

    Not tutorial, not drawing, not art theory, but a music recommendation!! Beware y'all, my taste in music is weird tho. I am just looking for ideas to fill my blog and excuses for me to show my favorite musics to someone.

Differences A Line Can Make in Drawing pt. 2

EYEBROWS
    Eyebrows could make differences depends on how you draw them, you could draw the same eyes but with different eyebrows and it could change how your character is feeling. For examples:


no brows just like me

   In the next posts I'll post examples of how eyebrows could effect your character's feelings atm.

Differences A Line Can Make in Drawing pt. 1

    As the title said, I am going to show you what differences a line can make when it is placed in a certain position when drawing face's features. (please note that these is according to how I interpreted it) And for this topic, I am going to create individual blog depends on what I will explain.


EYES
    When drawing characters, your line placement for eyes could change their overall emotion or even characters. Take a look:



    Drawing eyes with straight upper lid with curved lower lid could make them look serious, drawing eyes with both curved eyelids could make them look s h o o k, and lastly, drawing eyes with curved upper lid and straight lower lid could make them look somewhat happy. The emotion on your character depends on how you draw them eyebrows too.

    Also if you want to draw a simple old anime character dude you could just add lines below the eyes just like how I do it:



EYE SHAPES
    Oh so your characters have the same face syndrome? (idk man, google it if you don't know) And you are trying hard to make them look different?? Well, I have good news for you!! You can start by changing your characters eye shapes! Variation is good, don't be afraid to try new things. For examples:


    And here, is an example of same face syndrome:


    See?? The characters look so boring right? It's as if they all staring into your soul while laughing at you because you can't even draw different eyes. When you try so hard to distinguish your character with the other but you can only change the the hair/add features like horns and tattoos in the end, they'll all look the same. My solution is, firstly, you can start by changing their eye shapes. Take a look:


   They look like a complete new characters right?? It almost looks like I didn't copy and paste their face. And if you start changing your character's eye shapes you can also change their eyebrow's shapes, and then the nose, and then the face structure and even body shapes!

    Okay, so in the next blog I'll show you how eyebrows could change the character's emotion and characteristic. Thanks y'all for reading these (if you actually read it lmao) and don't ask me why I make separate blog with the same topic (gotta create more blogs for T.I.K scores,, gotta catch them deadline boiss). Thank you all,, have a great day!!

Cara Menggambar Wajah Anime

Ea versi translate tapi bedanya hanya dengan memakai bahasa Indonesia yang tidak sopan. Sebenarnya saya dulu waktu kecil nggak pernah nyari-nyari tutorial di internet tentang cara menggambar tapi kalau cuman buat nilai T.I.K saya harus buat tutorial yang tidak berguna ini untuk para pemirsa (༎ຶ⌑༎ຶ).

Nah, pertama-tama jika anda ingin menggambar wajah atau muka anime cogan, anda harus tau apakah itu Guideline
GUIDELINE
    Guideline adalah garis bantu yang sangat membantu jika anda baru saja belajar cara menggambar, tapi untuk menggambar wajah anime anda pertama-tama harus:

1. Menggambar Lingkaran
    Lingkaran sangat banyak ditemui kalau search cara menggambar wajah atau muka, baik yang anime atau pun yang realistic. Mengapa demikian? Karena bentuk lingkaran digunakan sebagai dasar menggambar untuk tengkorak manusia (lihat saja wajah anda, atasnya bulat kan)

2. Menggambar Garis Bantu
     Atau yang disebut juga Guidelines. Garis bantu yang saya perlu gambarkan untuk tutorial ini hanya lah garis sebagai patokan untuk mata, hidung, dan juga garis simetri di tengah lingkaran yang tadi telah digambar.

3. Menggambar Wajah
     Menggambar wajah atau dagu di usahakan simetri dengan garis bantu tengah yang tegak.

4. Menggambar Fitur Wajah

    Gambarlah fitur-fitur wajah karakter anime anda sesuai dengan apa yang anda suka.
"Ingat ya, gambarnya simple-simple saja, karena style anime menyederhanakan fitur-fitur wajah."
-Ayah saya 2012

5. Menggambar Telinga
    Kalau menggambar telinga di usahakan tingginya sesuai dengan tinggi mata ke hidung. Kalau tidak, akan terlihat aneh (walaupun style anime, tetapi jika style abstrak terserah anda)


6. Menggambar Rambut
    Menggambar rambut untuk anime tidak perlu menggambar tiap helai tetapi sederhanakan, sesuai dengan interpretasi anda. Kalau saya, seperti ini untuk menggambar karakter lelaki:


7. Menghapus Garis
    Menghapus garis-garis pembantu yang tidak diperlukan. Jangan lupa untuk meng-edit gambar anda.


dan TA-DA!! 

Selamat my bois,, Di tutorial selanjutnya saya akan menjelaskan perbedaan jika anda menggambar mata lebar/kecil, menggambar mulut dengan bibir/tidak, menggambar tubuh yang luas/kecil, dan menggambar leher jika lebar/sempit.

How to Draw Anime Face

    Actually when I started to draw a face, I'll be likely to draw an anime face when I was younger (I think it was because I started to watch animation/anime too). I never search up on how to draw faces when I was younger so I can't quite explain how. But here, a tutorial on how to draw anime face (according to my brain and other website that has the same steps):

DRAWING GUIDELINE
    Guideline is useful if you just started to draw and wanting to draw anime. Firstly you'll have to:

1. Draw a Circle
    Well duh, like any other tuts on how to draw anime face lol

2. Draw the Guidelines
     For me, I only draw the line for the face's symmetry and then eyes and nose's guidelines.

3. Draw the Chin
     Make sure it's symmetrical to the center vertical line.

4. Draw the Facial Features
    Draw them to your liking.

5. Draw the Ears
    When drawing ears, make sure the height of the ear have the same height as the eyes to the nose's length.


6. Draw the Hair
    The hairstyle is up to your liking UwU


7. Erase Guidelines
    Or unnecessary lines. In here I edited somethings

and TA-DA!! 

Good job my bois,, Next tutorial I'll explain what's the differences when you draw eyes w/o lids, when there's lips, wide/small chest, thicc/thin neck, and anything else. Just to get that scores
