Redrew MS's head (and recolored) to have a more realistic look. Whaddaya think (may need to zoom in with your browser to get a bigger view)?

She just went from being quite fappable to un-fappable. She looks like a dude now!

What Gill and Izlude said.
You didn't make it more "realistic", you made her look like a tranny.
...
...a more-man-than-woman tranny.

And if you wanna make her realistic, maker her look like she's supposed to look.
CHINESE. :V

It does indeed look more like Marilyn now.

MARILYN MANSON.

I know it's not spelled like that; but it needed to be said.

Slim down that jawline.

Also if you're going for more realistic, the coloring and shading style has to change as well... like a LOT. I prefer the original, honestly.

The jawline was actually not drawn on the original. I added it after the fact so that the whole page wouldnt become skin colored. Here is a bigger version of the hand drawn before greyscaled and/ or colored:






Others: Looks like a woman to me. Maybe the cpu darkened lines where they shouldnt be too much? Im trying to achieve the feel of the dark Kaldea Orchid from the bouncer or better yet, the feel of Marilyn's evil personality from her ending. She is a dark character, not a cute-sie wootie one. Im trying to convey that in the drawing. Blow it up full screen. And professionally tell me what would make her more attractive to the viewer.

"She" looks like Iori Yagami with a pretty new hair style and make-up. That nose is humongous and masculine looking, along with the jawline, and she has those masculine "nigga lips", resulting in her looking like a drag queen.

She needs a rounder face, narrower eyes (she is chinese afterall), smaller, more asian-like nose, and more womanly lips.

Fixed for professionalism and unchildishness.

Any race can have narrow eyes. 70 percent of anime have huge eyes. Id say Id put more of a slant to them and ill round out the space below the ear. Asians arent restricted to small noses. They have all sorts just like every other race. No anime drawing by any professional as far as stylized, ever look like an actual asian. As for the lips, Joe Maduierra uses bigger lips on his women. You say he's not very good then? If you look at anyones lips, youd see that the actual colored "pink" part of the lip stops short of the full lip. That line on her bottom lip represents the ending of the colored part of the lip and not the actual end of the lip. Of course no one would actually color in the pink part if the char wears no lipstick. Im not gonna just draw a str8 line to represent no lipstick. That just doesnt look right to me. Ive already thinned the brows a lil that the program made thicker and also thinned the lashes a lil. Ill reupload the pic once I do the section below the ear and slant the eyes a bit more. I dont see a prob with the nose. Unlike anime, i dont just make the nose a triangle with no hole and be over with it. Ill get back to ya after I made some adjustments.


Please stop using racist terms. You wouldnt want me to needlessly say wigger, cracker, or redneck would ya? alright then. Speak as if you have at least SOME sort of intellegence please.

Honestly, I don't know why you think a square chin is a prominent female feature, because with the "fixed" version of the jawline, her face just looks flat, and the open mouth really gives her a hurrrdurrr look.

No offense intended here, but your drawing style clearly favors the more anime facial type, as the revised version didn't come out looking so well.

Joe Madierra draws some of the fugliest women I have ever seen looking back at his Battle Chaser days. People only worshipped Red Monika cuz of her huge tits, they don't care she's a total butterface.

Regardless, apparently you don't know how to differentiate between masculine and feminine features, such has shape of the face, jawline, nose structure, and lips. I'd suggest taking some time to look through some tutorials at DeviantArt on drawing feminine faces. I understand you want to break away from ABK's "Japanime style", but that's no excuse to make her look like an ugly NYC drag queen. Marilyn Su is supposed to be a beautiful, elegant and graceful lady, always with that fiendish smile.

there is no square chin. you have a studded based of a chin rounded off at the sides. not ever would you find a person with a "candy corn/sharp" pointed chin (unless they have some kind of birth defect). The slant is called perspective. You could say that its a little too low of a slant for your taste, but the comments a intended for slander rather than getting something to be better. When a normal person compares anime with a cartoony look and one with a more detailed look, they would say that the one with the more detail would look more realistic. They wouldnt say "the one with the more detail". For example: Jojo's bizarre adventure "looks more realistic" than tenchi muyo.


Guilty/Tengu: Sigh, I knew yall would start to act stupid over this. I shoulda known better. When one sees somebody acting rediculous, the rest of the monkeys have to join in too huh. jus great. DO something better and then YOU let ME know.

DM

I'm in a thread about how to draw traps?
As Tengu said, try to do her face a kinda rounder.
