Male character's jaw line could cut diamonds.

Mark: makes a perfect circle in 10 seconds Me: makes a perfect circle in 10 minutes

This is a good way to draw siblings.

It baffles me that you can sound so serious but can be so silly with the whole blushie thing. XD

I'm sorry this comment is so long: Mr Crilley, when you put the two faces side by side, my mind was practically blown! This video reminded me of a tutorial of yours I watched years ago- 'How to draw manga eyes: Male vs Female.' Of course, the eight-year-old me attempted to copy it for a "battle" scene (in the violent sport of rock, paper, scissors) for one of my comics! I had discovered your videos; and from then onwards watched them and I am now hooked onto manga! You're a great teacher! I'm still young, but I hope I will grow up to be like you and other great artists out there! I'm sure other viewers of yours think the same! Thanks for being awesome ^-^

Wish my art teachers actually knew how to draw Manga... Much less KNEW what Manga WAS..... Stay awesome, Mark. You've helped me draw so much.

I personally believe, as an artist, the lips play one of the most prominent roles in the transformation of a man to a woman.

He said something about artist tend to try and make male and female look different by exaggerating features, but I ended up laughing thinking, I watch way to much anime where you literally have to think for a little bit before you can decide what gender some characters are..

I don't even draw but these videos are so interesting :D

Blushies! I love it when male characters have blushies! ^o^ Also thank you for being so cognizant of what's considered "feminine" and "masculine", i.e. that these are conventions used by illustrators. It's refreshing to hear a point of view that doesn't assume these traits as givens.

I was doing great until the eyes... Why must eyes be so cruel?!?!?!

Thank you for these video tutorials, it's a nice surprise to find an illustrator giving help to the community beyond their books. Your tips helped me see that some of my instinct drawings got some things right about male faces vs. female faces. Watching your videos is like having a mentor to guide through drawing and writing. Thanks again (and I will be picking up your books in the future soon!)

markcrilley, I must thank you. You are my boss lol. But like, I'm recommending you every time somebody appreciate my drawings (I draw while in class :/) Your point-perspective videos are the ones I pay the most attention because of the magic of building things in two dimensions XD, and the narrative in the tutorials is just great for following up your demonstrations while fishing some good tips! I feel I have all the things I need to learn in your channel. Sincere thumbs up!

Male character already started looking like a male character right after you drew the first eye. You could've changed just the eyes, and it would've been a believable male character, albeit slightly feminine.

"blushies" lmaooooooo You're great omg

when i saw him finsh the Jaw i was like dang boy when was the last time you had a meal

the dude looks like he saw a ghost and didnt eat for 3 years

while he was drawing the Male face I was like " the mouth, the mouth" then he finally fixed it, and I felt pleased...

In the past few years I've learned so much from your videos and I've become a lot better at drawing. THANK YOU MARK! :)

Heya, Mark! I got in on your how to's and stuff a little less than a year ago, and I got glued to you! You make things so detailed, and seeing the process makes me think "Wow, how come I've never been able to do something this easy?" So I'd just like to say, thank you for being such a helpful influence on my art skills, and thank you for being awesome! Your Mastering Manga 1 book is amazing by the way =). Have a great day!!

And Mark has out done himself once again!

Thanks Mark!!! I asked this question so many times, its nice to know that you listen to your fans. Great video.

Great video Mark! This was so helpful. Gotta love the blushies as well lol!

Has he drawn someone crying?

You've always been a big help for me over the years :D

I think it's awesome how Mark answers every single one of his video's comments and helps out everyone who wants to improve their art!

All thanks to YOU, I've gotten so much better at drawing fan art and making my OWN anime characters!!! Thanks a bunch! Keep it up!

markcrilley you have helped me draw sooo much!! i did your Innocent Girl vid and it actually turned out really good! THANK YOU

I love your channel! :D For me, it's not so much about whether the character is a male or female, but about how each individual character is built. It's cool to see other artist's style however, and this video is pretty interesting. :3

My dad and I are both artists, and I love your videos. They are much better than anyone else's. Just keep doing what you're doing, because you rock.

I love you! This is just what I needed. It's amazing to see the transformation, and good call on keeping the hair the same. It helps keep the focus on structure. I always love the blushies.

As far as females having thinner eyebrows, I have two words for you, Mark: Kiryuin Satsuki

This is so awesome! I've actually just thought that it's a fantastic way to draw identical twin characters :D I didn't draw this as you did because it's 01:41am and I should really be sleeping but I'm not, but I will certainly be trying something like this sometime soon x3

markcrilley Very helpful tips, Thanks again for all your amazing how to draw videos!

Mark,i have been with you since the very start.i remember reading Akiko at my school library that was a GOOD time then Miki Falls came out and loved every moment of it.and then Brodys Ghost came out and i am looking forward to your future Mangas/books.many times i have gotten discouraged then i watch your videos... it incouraged me to keep trying and not give up.you've helped me countless times thank you Mark,thank you.

Can you teach how to draw a curly hair? I have this character of mine and I want him to have curly hair but just don't know how to do it. Like can.you shoe different tipes of curly hair, like really curly, a little curly, short curly, long curly (not too long, not even reaching the shoulders)

It's really good that there is someone, good in art, that can explain everything we need so simply ading some sence of humor of course!! If someday i have a trip to America i will defenitly buy these books!!

This was so great. I haven't watched Mark Crilley in a long time now and it was like visiting an old friend. Your videos have helped me so much over the years and I've really improved as an artist. Thanks for everything, Mark

WOAH!!! For whatever reason, I stopped watching your vids and I forgot how much I LOVE THEM!!!!! Lol good to see you again! :D

Historically, males and females both actually had long hair generally, especially those of the upper class. Cutting your hair at all was considered taboo in a way, and only the poor did it, that is, if they could afford the tools. And then they had a really messed up looking haircut, because they did it themselves with old shears. Of course, this is just a generalization, but. . . . On a side note, I tend to draw a lot of long-haired male characters. I don't know why, but I just love the look of it.

Long lost brother and sister?

Truly great idea and very clear instructions indicating the differences between the female and male face. Thank you Mark.

wow, I am so impressed by your efficiency. you don't ever seem to put a stroke out of line. I mean, I'm confident I could produce something of a similar standard but thats after a lot of touching up. making sure the eyes are balanced, the ears are in the right place the necks the appropriate size etc. you seem to knock it out of the park on the first try. amazing.

Thank you Mark! You are awesome

could you please do a video on realistic steampunk drawings? and i love your videos, i found you because my art teacher at school has used a couple of your time lapse videos to teach us.

Best way to start my Saturday :) Thanks Mark!!

No way of describing how awesome this is, thankyou Mr. Crilley, ive been watching Ur vids or over 2 years now! U deserve more subs!!

Although this is really late. There are some manga artists that make their character(s) look both male and female and let the readers decide what the gender is. A good example of this is Hanji/Hange Zoe from Attack on Titan (manga not the anime)

I will try to get your books too!

mark you are just awesome man, keep up the good work!!

I was so excited for this vid!!

Mark, can you do a video to explain how to do two eyeballs look symmetrical or have you already done one?

Hey hi crilley, just wanted to tell ya great video you did here today The male vs female is pretty good comparison between the two its like you drew the husband and wife because they look great together these characters. And keep it up inspiring your viewers an teaching us your ways Sensei because that's what you are to others a great art teacher ^-^

Thank you for another vital video...those blushies worked out quite well :)

well this video was awesome. I love those formats and you help me everytime i watch one of your vids

I can never seem to get guide lines right they're always either to curved or to straight

You know your a fail when you can't even draw the circle.

Wow! This is an awesome video, Mark. :)

This vid definitely helped me to see key differences in the male and female faces. The only thing i wouldn't change is the contour of the face. I like that smooth look that it has but i can see why you changed it the way you did.

The character he drew is basically transgender

Thicker eyebrows on male characters? I blame fist of the North Star

awesome, best concept yet!

This is the most helpful video you've done in awhile, and the idea was very creative. You should try making a video from start to finish on how to draw a comic book page, maybe one from your next Brody's Ghost book, to go along with your manga-making series of videos

Can you do an anime version of Eren Yeager and his Titan Form from Attack On Titan?

And can you please draw a ninja? Or a dragon (if you haven't done that before)? Oh, and I almost forgot: You're awesome ;)

I just bought your book, Mastering Manga, and I'm finding it very helpful so far. I'm just starting out as an artist so watching your step by step videos is very inspirational for me as well, keep up the great work.

ahaha the blushies XD So cute! good video, helped me a lot, thanks! You laid it out very creatively :)

When I make a manga, I want a character who either looks like a girl, is mistaken for a girl, but is actually a boy, or a character who looks like a boy, is mistaken for a boy, but is actually a girl.

Gender bend versions

Hi! I just wanted to thank you for all the the videos you made because they really helped me to get better at drawing! You are my inspiration and I hope that one day I can draw as well as you :)

Your videos are getting progressively longer Mark.... I like it!

Great video Mark! The way you challenge yourself gives us more insight on how you work, and inspires us to keep challenging ourselves. Thanks!

Thank you so much for making this video! Very informative and I learned a lot!

You have a beautiful talent Mark, congratulations!

Thanks for making so many great videos, Mark Crilley! I never thought I could ever become an artist without your videos! They have really boosted my confidence and have helped me to find out what I want to be! :D Thank you so much! :D

Truly amazing, like always :)

Awesome vid. I really appreciate these examples; they're all amazing!

awesome vid Mark, Thanks a lot!

This was cool to see and answered questions I had about this subject.

This was incredibly useful and interesting! Thank you :)

Great video mark!

What a great idea and tutorial. Thank you Mark!

That was really helpful! Thanks for this video!

perfect for making creepy twins and siblings

I just love your videos, btw found out about you in my graphics class :D

I enjoyed watching carefully each stroked you made. ..thank you. I learned a lot though !

I love this video!! It helped me know for sure and now my artwork will be a lot more defined. Thank you Mark :)

Mark, your video's are always enlightening, whether I'm drawing along with you or not. These tips will help me with my biggest problem being very unisex looking characters. I'm also planning on buying the Brody's Ghost series due to how often you reference it. It look like an amazing series.

this is the 3rd video I watched from you, you sir just got yourself another subscriber

This is amazing! I couldn't learn how to draw male better! And he's so funny at the same time. I love the videos!! Thx :)

Awesome tutorial and video. You are literally one of my top three artist idols. Jim Lee, David Finch, then you and also Robert Marzullo. Well that makes four, lol.

love your lines and how easy you make it look to add the details in the females eyes. it was just an empty socket , then *poof* pretty eyes! love your videos!

Another fascinating tutorial! Thanks, Mark! :0) Looking through the comments, I noticed what NICE people watch your lessons! Everybody is supportive and helpful to one another! Where someone has suggested a topic for your next video, which has been done before, unbeknownst to them, either you give them a link to your previous video on that subject or one of your KIND subscribers does. So cool! Way to go, CRILLEY Subs!!!

Another great video, and as usual, it's really helpful :) Thank you Mr. Crilley! I hope that in a future video you can also talk a little about composition.

Great tutorial! Thank you so much!

This is so helpful thank you so much!

He makes it look so easy!

Thank you! This is so helpful.

This was like watching magic. Great video

Thanks so much for this! I've been struggling with making my make characters more masculine for a while now. Can't wait to give your tips a try!
