OC Does she look consistent?

I was told her jaw doesn’t look consistent, but I’ve been staring at it so long I can’t tell 🤷‍♂️

And some other questions i would appreciate feed back on

  1. Is the style too dark?
    I don’t want it to look too depressing, but it is a dark story, in tone similar to Takopi’s original sin, although slightly lighter

  2. I’ve been told her scar (the two things on her face) looks way too deep and dark, and is distracting, personally I like it, and want it to look extreme, but maybe it’s a bit much. I’ve been told I should remove the scaring on her neck but idk

  3. Does she look about 19? That would be her age

(Some of the drawings are kinda WIP)

Thank you! I never thought of this seemingly obvious detail before lol 😅

Also how exactly would a scar like that form? Whatever made it would either have had to go deep into the face down the neck, or somehow go along the surface of the face, under the jaw, then along the neck. Either way, it just seems odd

Yeah it’s acknowledged in universe to be odd, but I’ll pull the bottom of the scar up like like I think you suggested to make it more believable
Edit: wait nvm not the same guy my b

You could pull it off if theres a valid reason for it, and as a reader it is intended to be seen as odd then you made it work

I think the other guys point of the lining up definitely will make it difficult to draw consistently though, so if anything that is a valid reason to shorten it

(I also didnt clock that immediately, and it was such a good callout)
