Hello guys I've been trying to make a cute character but I'm a bit stuck right now. So I'm coming here to ask you guys for help!

Heres my progress so far: http://i1305.photobucket.com/albums/s559/pryox/20121227025644_zpsc467acd1.jpg

She should be a smart and pretty girl from a royal family who abandoned her lifestyle to be a capsulier, and one of her distinctive traits is she has a scar on her right temple from an attack by a ferocious predator.

Thanks for the tip!

Do you have any tricks for making prettier faces? I know something feels off but I just can't figure out what it is exactly Sad

Why did you have to post that? Ugh

Actually, the OP looks a bit like Cher, but only a bit, and it's not that bad. People tend to exaggerate here.

Just give the neck a little more thickness or tone down on the lips. Either will improve it, but not both. Add some body to the face with a cheek pull, and maybe lower the cheekbones a little if you decide to go with the thicker neck rather than the thinner lips. Draw left/right on the top and bottom lips to change their pout. It's a bit much as it is, and you can pull down on the top or up on the bottom to reduce their shape a bit, or from side perspective, push them in or out individually.

Just mould and sculpt.

edit: also pull the brow down above the nose a little to lose the puppy look, and maybe push the sides of the brow out to increase depth. The bottom lip is too big and out of proportion to the top, the nose is fine but I notice it has an arch to it, and it could use a little meat on the end. Far to pointy and incongruous as it is.

Hope that helps. Smile

I could help!

First step, you need to make softer features. women don't have much testosterone. So, we have smaller and finer features. Secondly, I know how guys are about boobs and butts, but try to be realistic about body proportions (don't go FFF but go for some lift and separate).

Secondly, know that your complexion should determine your make up color. If she's going to be fair skin uses a lighter touch than a darker skinned character. Also, our eye color determines a lot about the eye shadow, which in turn determines blush. If it's hazel, brown, or green, go with an earth color. If her eyes are blue, go with pinks and blues.

Also pick good hair colors. See how mine has contrasting high lights with the natural character? Try going as natural as possible (i.e. avoid pink and blue hairs).

Finally, the portrait. Pick a color scheme. I've gone very black and white. Ask a photographer how to make a good picture. I took a class and understood aspects of lighting and positioning. So, I had a little advantage.

One more thing. uman hair, even in old people, don't just have only one color. In dark haired people, you can find different hues and shades. SO I really recommend going two toned in the hairs.
