lol I have a pretty much insane collection, though it could be and is getting worse. I know the books always show tons of different ways to draw the face to get a certain look, or style. My style starts out with an upside down egg shape that is refined into a more upside down teardrop shape. Some people start right off the bat with the teardrop, however sometimes that can lead to a WAY to long and pointy chin(like more so than mine are)and a lack of forehead. Some people start off with a circle and then change it to an oval, then an egg shape, then sharpen the angles to give a more masculine chin...really it's all different, so it's just a matter of finding what works for you and what you prefer as well. Just like I prefer egg-to-teardrop

225 volumes of manga and that's without my How to draw collection....

I block out my entire figure mannequin style. Just recently added a parallelagram to make the chin XD Or, in males that's how I do it. Still haven't figured out female yet

      For me, it's nice that it ends up being civil. DA, it would be a bitching contest

          Well thanks :3

          Though, I tend to win the bitching contests on DA. When it comes time to whip it out and measure~ lol

            lol niiice! I just like to tell people they can suck my left nut, because they're not good enough for the right one.

            I always get the comment "But you're a girl! You don't have any balls!"

            I usually answer with either "exactly!" or "Got more balls than you!"

            lol

        yeah it would be. I tend to win bitching contests only because I'm as stubborn as a jackass, and therefore most people just give up after my reasoning stops making sense. lol

    Wow. I have allot of manga, but not that much yet. I have aproximately 2000$ worth of manga(as an average, because some books were more than 10$ and others were less, so I averaged them out to 10$ each)

    I have different ways of blocking my characters out, depending on their poses.
