I would approach any character as an androgynous person first, and build up a semblance of personality before developing them with gender in mind. Because otherwise you might fall into your default female tropes.
Yes this

Just as a tip in general, it helps to think about the roles God made a man or a woman to fill. Woman are the emotionally unstable mothers, while men are the factual, rational fathers who keep the wives from going insane. A man and a woman balance each other. Idk, maybe that isn’t a helpful tip at all, but it sure has helped me to think a…

I’m obviously not a guy, but my advice would be to find a happy medium between those two extremes. (Unless he actually would be on one end of the spectrum). Try to think of him as simply a character. Keep in mind that he’s a guy, but don’t get so caught up in that that you give him a reaction that isn’t consistent with his per…[Read more]

‘Teenagers’ (by Andy Gullahorn) is genuinely one of the funniest songs I’ve ever heard. And the way he sings it, he sounds so serious, it just cracks me up XD

Oh, and does he look cocky? You mention his being prideful, is it obvious by looking at him? I love drawing character with a slight smirk but I want to make sure that is in line with his character if I do lol

MineralizedWritings replied to the topic Art Challenge! in the forum Art 2 years, 1 month ago
oh ok this sounds cool!
I think I’ll draw him as a prince, could you describe his hair and features a little more? I mean I can use creative liberties, but like how long is his hair?
Also, would you describe him as being a little bit rough around the edges prince or really trim and neat?
For instance, Aragorn is a king that…[Read more]

Very good topic right here, I have way more male characters more than female ones and yet emotionally they still act like girls XD

You tagged me, but this never came up in my email, so sorry for the late response😕
That’s okay, thanks for answering anyway!
There can also be the kind of rival where one is trying to pull the other towards their way of thinking. What comes to my mind is the villain troupe where they tell the hero “where not so different you and I…

Esther replied to the topic Help with a scene in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 1 month ago
I would encourage you to play around with it and see what you like. This is a first or second draft, so I wouldn’t worry too much about the POVs being in the right place.
But yeah, I really like what Calyhuge suggested. Sometimes you just have to write and figure it out as well. Definitely write from both POVs in this part of the draft, t…[Read more]
