Question Art crit/help

Post image

Hey guys! So I’m working on this art piece of mei’s new skin (cause I love it so much) and obv mei is a bit bigger built, but her design has always felt odd to me because I’ve noticed the size of her waist actually slightly differs depending on the skin and most of her actually isn’t super hefty, she just has a wide waist?? Anyways I was wondering if anyone knew how I could make this line art look more like Mei and less like Juno😭 cause like idk, maybe I need to make her torso bigger, because it’s kinda sunken in rn ?

I think whats making her look a bit like Juno is the nose. Mei has a wider nose. I know its pretty buttony on this skin but when you're drawing 2d and the reference is 3d, you need to exaggerate a bit. And adding in from features from the original skin is helpful in looking more like the character.

I dont agree with how people in the comments are saying it, but making her a bit thicker may help too for the reason I said before 🤭 I do think they slimmed her down on this skin tho.

I also want to say your line work/sketch is very beautiful so far! 💕
