Yeah...Supposed to be a Black Mage from Final Fantasy. As the title suggests, he's strolling through a strange lavander-clouded bog.

When most artists draw a bishonen face, it looks pretty yet masculine.

When Penis Moai draws a bishonen face, it ends up looking like Michael Jackson's mugshot.

Can 34-san give Penis Moai any advice?

Alrighty. Basically, whenever I draw a pretty face-male or female-I usually try to use as few contours and lines on the face as usual. For whatever reason, this gives the face simplicity and a sense of clarity, which in turn gives a pretty look.

I also take into consideration the shape of the face, and when doing pretty faces on guys, I like to use an approach that is relatively common on bishounen males, which is a somewhat pointed chin and a defined nose. (How you define the nose is up to you)

If nothing else, your guy should have pretty eyes. Make them glimmer and stand out a little (I usually try to avoid colors like black or brown here, as they don't tend to have a lot of appeal) and give the eyes prominent eyelashes. That helps too.

Sorry if this isn't much help. I'm afraid I'm not much of a teacher, because when I draw things like this these guidlines are sort of subconscious.
