do you think that you draw one sex/gender better than another?

do you think that you draw one sex/gender better than another? do you fall for the meme of exclusively drawing one sex/gender?

What even is the meaning of meme these days?
Is it a meme to call anything a meme?

I find both about equally difficult. They just have different sets of problems to them and require different handling. Women are more difficult to get variety in their faces though. If you accentuate something incorrectly people accuse you of drawing them too manly, even if it is well within the norm of actual women's face. For example, and defined jaw structure is seen as masculine and a fuck up if you put it on a woman, but there are many women that exist with strong jawlines. With men it is quite easy to vary the structure for different face types once you have some idea of the anatomy and planes of the head.

Draw cutesy fuccbois/traps, everyone wins.

Well, if Nesskain had trouble drawing women before, he (she?) sure learnt it after drawing all those Overwatch chicks for Blizzard.
>>
>>2726488
I think his women still looks kinda male-ish(?).
>>
Well, you know, I am still learning, so...
>>
>>2726481
Very very true, drawing a woman's face requires subtlety. If you draw a face that lacks that subtlety, suddenly it's a man's face. You can have manly features on a woman but you must almost compensate for them by toning down other features to maintain the femininity. Fuck it's hard.

Also who is this artist? I've seen his/her stuff before but image search comes up with cringy 9gag shit
>>
I draw too many girls :(
>>
>>2726480

It is a meme. Also your life is a meme.
>>
>>2726476
Nesskain is good but I had to unfollow because all he draws are big gay bears
>>
I draw men better just because I've practiced them more over all, also I think there is less room for error with female faces.
>>
>>2726569

I also think that /hm/ has best male references.

I love drawing lolis, If I'm drawing other things, I just draw a cute loli beside so I won't be bored
>>
>>2726572
of course, you only go to /hm/ for references.
>>
>>2726480

Funny enough meme has become more like its original meaning rather than just "lol that's a funny cat"

Most transmittable behaviors literally are memes by definition.

>>2726476
I definitely draw guys better. Was self-conscious about drawing chicks for a long time.

Lefty?

Drawing dudes and muscles is pretty fun after drawing a shitload of women.
>>
>>2726759
and hes still leagues better than all of /ic/
>>
>>2726910
Is that everyone's standard here? "Better than /ic/"? Setting the bar a bit low, don't you think?
>>
>>2726495
well you're wrong

>gay men draw the most elegant women
Leyendecker made everything elegant. Him being gay had nothing to do with it.
>>
>>2726476
the artist is gay as hell. nothing wrong with that, but it explains his devotion to draw men all the time.
>>
>>2726476
I think I draw both equally well, even though I spend 95% of my time drawing women. As a weeb artist though, I've noticed that a lot of Japanese artists who draw in stereotypical moe styles often fail at drawing men. They either draw teenage male characters who look like women with shorter hair and a pointy chin, or they draw these weird, big-eyed adult characters who just look freaky. A lot of them simply can't draw masculine characters, because they usually require square features, a bit of hatching and clearer lines to draw certain things, like eyes, lips and noses.

faggot here, I can't draw women

its nassikain, hes not all that great but he IS better than all of /ic/, so yes, when it comers to up and comming comic book artists, /ic/ is a good bar to shit on.

>>2727627
That's simply ugly, being a man wouldn't change that fact.

probaby women. when i draw men i think with my dick

he draws the overwatch females pretty well.
>>
>>2727370
dude , we are talking about faces lmao
>>
>>2726476
lots of artists draw one sex better than the other, look at some michelangelo stuff, the master had very little knowledge of the female anatomy compared to what he knew about the male body, mainly because he was a flaming homosexual, all his women look like men with tits glued on. with exception of the pieta, because the virgin mary is fully covered in clothes
>>
>>2727717
In that case, your dick is retarded.
>>
>>2727959
except michelangelo live in a world that female nude models aren't available and he had to use male model for his females while this guy lives in a world full of nude porn in one click.
>>
>>2727985
Michelangelo used cadavers and statues, didn't he?

Nowhere did OP narrow the topic down to faces only, they talked about sex/gender. OP's image is merely an example.

Yeah i actually have this problem i feel
Although it's my fault for trying to draw women more to begin with instead of a balance of both
>>
>>2726476
>do you fall for the meme
get cancer and die
>exclusively drawing one sex/gender?
yes, i draw mostly men. rarely women for paid work for clients. Men have more details on their faces while adding details to a woman makes her old and not appealing to look at.

>he draws the overwatch females pretty well.
dude wat. his overwatch females are the worst. all of them have that souless look with blank stare and eyes
>>

I don't have any problem drawing realistic male and female, but I'm having trouble drawing male face in anime style while being comfy at female ones.

Men are difficult for me to draw but its something im practicing. Trying to break the habit of only mindlessly drawing women, and especially only women with my body type (see pic). I think i heard somewhere that we tend to draw ourselves in characters that draw from imagination? Not sure how true it is, but the women i draw do end up having my same body type all the time...hmm
>>
>>2726551
same

I'm a guy. I made a drawing of this post-apocalyptic chick with no reference at all for her face and I just tried to make her attractive but still tough looking. I showed it a few months later to my big brother who knows nothing about art. His comment?

"Dude, that's you as a chick"

Fuck. There is definitely something to this. I've even seen in figure drawing class people draw something of themselves into their life drawings. Pretty weird and fascinating. I don't want to unconciously draw qt trap versions of myself though :(
>>
>>2730155
Hah thats hilarious! It always seems the people we show our art to who know next to nothing about art, are the ones that have the most insightful things to say about it that we cant see ourselves! Or at least thats what ive found to be true in my experience.
>>
>>2730161
No, this never happens.

>>2727949
The hips of the face. Study some more, anon.
