This is a really good start! I feel like with practice and self-critique, you could end up being really great at all kinds of styles!
But do you want my honest critique?
If not, I can easily remove it. ^^;
The nose is a bit too high up, close to the eyes. My suggestion here is to grab a handheld mirror (or just look in a big one, whatever works) and study your own face for a bit so you know exactly how a human's face anatomy is. After you've done that, you take what you learned and exaggerate bits. The eyes are slightly bigger in the anime style, and the mouth and nose slightly smaller, as eyes that are big and shiny are considered cute and innocent. Eyes that are smaller and more narrow point to someone who is more devious and cunning, who will likely swipe an old lady's purse while pretending to help her across a road.
The cheeks are a bit prominent and pointed. I find it's best for me to draw my initial shape and then shave off the parts that don't look right to me.
not here- find me on dA or toyhouse instead!
if you have a kalon designed or transferred by me, please don't credit me on TH.
