Hey man... I don't know if I can help about the Dora's maleness bit but in my experience it seems very very common the man-who-doesn't-know-how-to-draw-girls problem lol. I, as a girl, have trouble to draw MEN. My guess is that we start drawing what we know better - boys start drawing boys, girls go for girls. Female and male anathomy are very different on an skeletal basis and with different proportions. We have larger pelvis and smaller chests and the average girl body has a "8" proportion: chest and pelvis are the same size, waist goes for more or less 4/5 of the chest lenght in realistic anathomy, and way more thinner if you're into Jim Lee's wasp waist style of drawing. Indeed, many girls, even the skinner, have hips largest than their chests. Other important point: girls have softer muscles than boys. Indeed, most of the time they're not aparent at all, if you're not a gym maniac. Smooth the lines until it gets very subtile.
Funny how this is exactly my problem with male anathomy. I'm used to another proportions. Male body works well on the "t" shape. Larger shoulders, pronounced muscles, smaller hips and usually the waist line is the same lenght of the hips. I tend to not draw sharp body lines so my males always finish having a girlish look (I wish I drew manga style lol, thus would make my life easier).
If you want to discuss anathomy further, try me at MSN ([email protected]), I'll just love it :) - remember that I'm on GMT -3 btw :)
Sideways:
I LOVE the colouring/grading/shading on that Dora pic... absolutely beautiful!
I agree with the proportion complaints, but overall I'd give that a 95%!
(Docking 5% for large shoulders, but I don't see how her face is mannish... just the shoulders).
You must teach me in the ways of colouring/shading...
I am like an open book, educate me!
The Neko:
