You kidding that is one MANRY face, dude. Generally girls' (and bishounen's) faces are all curves and no sharp corners. They also tend to be a bit less long, and stuff.
...I mean I understand it's your style, but some differentiation can't hurt. I'm certain that your style permits for a lot of variation, you just... seem to... not do it. I dunno, maybe work on variation and stuff? A lot of your characters seem to have the same face. >.> No offense, but it looks like you copypasted the face for the two more drawn-out characters on this thing here...

Oh. Well, I must respectfully disagree with you there; a. I definitely know the general differences between male and female faces, and b. she looks believably female (albeit androgynous) to me (and a number of other people whose opinions I specfiically asked for after you posted your comment. (That and, uh, this was drawn months ago. But that notwithstanding, I think she looks just fine. ._.)
And I also disagree with the lack of variation -- I'm not trying to sound needlessly full of myself, but that's one of the things I specifically try for, and I think certainly succeed at. =|
I mean, I'm thinking about what you said -- seriously thinking about it -- but I still have to disagree.
El oh el, I did. They're supposed to have the exact same face because Yaxha is a clone of Kelziel.

b. ...Objective people, though? Because I asked people, and the answers vary. One yes, one maybe, and one no.
Variation, I guess you're doing a bit better than I said. But even so... I dunno, maybe you could see if you can try different styles sometimes. I mean I think it's helping me progress. Like, not realism with hints of your style, but proper realism. Different shading styles, different anatomy, stuff like that.
and you post things that you drew months ago >: for shame. Draw moar.
If I seem to be harsh in my words, I'm just telling you what I see, and what I think you could improve on. I don't mean to offend.

Objective enough, I think. (And it's not like everyone blindly agreed. By the time of writing this, the tally is three people who think it's fine as is, and one who basically agrees with you...though he phrased it slightly differently.)
Well, doing things digitally has already been great for experimenting with coloring/shading. 8D That's one of the reasons why I like doing it; it's so much easier to experiment and just ctrl+z if you don't like the results.
I'm sort of interested in attempting realism at some point, but...really, only as an occasional experiment. Realism isn't my goal, by any means; I find that art is much more interesting if it's somewhat stylized. I mean, it's definitely impressive when people can draw beautiful things that look like photos, but I'd never want that to be my main way of drawing.
Those are the only thing on there that old. The rest of them are from within, like, the past month or something.
Yeah, I know. I just happen to disagree with some. XD

No offense, but some women have long faces. Some women have high and angular cheekbones. You can't just say that all women and girly guys have rounded faces. Just because the face does not look all round and cute does not mean that it looks manly. I think it looks feminine/androgynous, myself. Which is what was intended.
Sorry if this seems unnaturally... rude to butt in, but I really just don't see what you're talking about. Perhaps I'm biased, but... *shrug*

That may be in part because I don't want to exaggerate the differences between males and females like a lot of artists tend to do -- because there really aren't that many physical differences (aside from genetalia, of course), only general trends. Everything is on a continuum between the sexes, even voice pitch and amounts of hair growth.
and to the second one... There are some basic differences between the general frame and a lot less but still slight difference in skull shape. Not great, sure, because that's how you get androgynous people, but there are still some which will be present in a lot of people. *shrugs* I'm with you on the not exaggerating thing (if it wasn't obvious enough), but, still.
And...also yeah. Chins are one often noticeable difference. And nose size (not length as much as...width and stuff).
But all things considered, it's still all basically a continuum.
That said, though? I hate the trend on this site (dunno if you've noticed it or not yet, but...) to give girlybois huge hips. =| I just...no. Boys have hips. But they do not have hips wider than their shoulders. Very few people do. I just...dskafjowepjfjwoefwef.

I don't get that either! ...I don't think it's a trend just on here, as much as, well, ANYWHERE.
But it looks dumb. I'm more offended by the huge-hipped women than the men, though, if only because they seem to be the worst offenders. I can tolerate mile-long legs more than hips three times the width of a person's waist. ...Aside from the whole people-don't-work-that-way, it also... well, looks bad.
