NOTE!!! THIS IS A WORK-IN-PROGRESS! (WIP)
This means I'm still working on it. In the early stages of portrait drawing (sometimes called the "ugly stage"), there are often a lot of mistakes which will get corrected as the drawing progresses.
The lack of the likeness was starting to bother me, so I made some MAJOR CHANGES! I erased and redrew the eyes, took out about half an inch off the hair at the top, lifted out some of the shading on the face and adjusted shape of face. I think it's starting to look more like Ninomiya now.
Coming up next: I'll be adjusting the tilt of the mouth (that's why there's a line on the left side of the mouth). The body and the plush heart will also be made a little wider.
