I like how symmetrical you get ll the features. I personally am terrible at this, and greatly admire those who can live their lives without the staining specter of a pervasive right-hand slant.

Bless yr clear-sighted balance, my lad!

Nice wip type of drawing. Trace it in Manga studio and turn on the symmetry mode. Might be a fun way to get there.

Done that before and see the "SLANT" on the hand drawn. As "staining specter of a pervasive right-hand slant' haunts all my drawings. Some more than others I took more care with this even if it's not perfect either. I need to train my eye on this more often as I initially start a drawing. Doing it on a computer is a cheat with the flip and tweaking (but it nice to be able to). Best to learn NOT to do it is train your eye and hand traditionally.

I like a little bit of asymmetry, even in drawings that are meant to be perfectly symmetrical. Flipping with the computer might make it a little too mechanical. Symmetry always gives a spiritual or religious feel to the piece, like these are goddesses you are drawing.

Shaping up nicely. Take it into photoshop and make a silhouette of it. Just to check on areas you might want to push or edit.

Tom Moon, for some of us every drawing is spiritual.
