Birthday Face Redline

Description

Original: Happy Birthday! :) by Duudle

I'm really not good at faces and I don't do cartoon style at all, but I really wanted to give this a try (and maybe learn something from it!). So Duudle noticed that when she flipped the picture, it just didn't look right. For me, the problem was that the cheek came out too far, and the lips seemed a little slanted and didn't quite wrap around the face. So I took the liquify (/warp) brush and pushed the cheek in a little, the nose downward, and the mouth around. The problem was, this also had the bad side effect of changing the entire shape of her face! So I went back and did the redline that tried to keep her face the same while still making it at the right angle. 

However, in a cartoon style, you can totally keep the cheek out as far as you did. If you did, you'd probably just need to play around with the mouth, and lower the nose. 

I hope this gives you some ideas to experiment with!

Oh wow! Thanks. o:
The adjustments do help quite a lot. I think if I redid the lips and nose tho, it'd totally fix the problem!
