Third attempt at drawing a face (Tenma)

Third attempt at drawing a face (Tenma)

I feel this is gonna take me a while longer and I think I'm fine with that. From last time I tried to follow the advice that I should try to use the Loomis method and break hair into shapes. It's kinda weird for me to see the shapes tbh. Maybe I've place the mouth to high and made the nose too small, idk.

Ah yes, that's a hand

Was just playing and got these jokers, also why is the phrase "straight flush" banned in the title? I just tried to say "ah yes, that's a straight flush".

Attempt #2 at Tenma

Followed the advice I got last time, which was mostly: eyes should be one eye ball apart, nose starts a little higher at the bottom of the eye, and the fact that his hair leaves his forehead open in a square square shape rather than a trapezoid. I tried to get his chin right/face shape, still couldn't. Feels like this one's worse but looks more like Tenma. Tbh it looks like he got hit in the head with a rock. Any suggestions?

1st attempt at drawing a face/head (Tenma)

Trying to learn how to draw/get better at drawing. Felt like trying to do Tenma since I'm watching the anime (still not done with it). This was the reference and the drawing. Looks wonky, couldn't get his chin right at first, still don't feel like I did, but it's better. How do do the hair on the right part? It's so much harder for my hand, ended up rotating the page 180 degrees. Any feedback welcome. Maybe don't shit on it too hard, xd.

Nothing to look forward to.

I (17 , male) feel like I have nothing to look forward to. After this summer, I'll be on my last year of highschool, I don't know what I want or what I'd like to do after, but I know most likely I'll have to go to a college/university (terms seem interchangeable), I feel overwhelmed thinking about what I'll have to do, like studying for those final exams to get into a university, learning the rules of driving (have to get my driver's license soon), and just other things. I find that during the day I just distract my mind and then when I'm in bed at night trying to sleep, my mind just runs with all those worries and self-loathing. This week and a half since finishing this grade I've been doing a bit of vacation homework and the rest of the day just distracting myself, and also drawing a bit (at the beginning). I struggle to look forward to something because what's there to look forward to? Media is just bad news. I'm aware it's because that's more profitable for them, but still. All this AI talk as well, like, water is going to shit, you'll have no job and whatever else. I just feel alone. I have one person I'd call a friend, but I don't think I could actually talk to them about stuff like this. I don't have anyone to talk to, family is a bit complicated, my mom tries but I couldn't talk to her, she wouldn't understand, I tried and she said she does understand but her actions showed me she doesn't. I stoped talking to my father for a while now. My parents are divorced since I was like 13-14. He used to come back into the country from work once a year for one week and all I'd get is verbally bullied, also was forced to talk with him almost daily on video call, same story. Finally blocked when my mom stopped making me talk to him. I could keep going about my childhood, but this would be too long. I'm currently also trying to be better, like eatting better (overweight), not consuming inadequate content as much. No, I haven't tried therapy, I'm too afraid. What I hear in my country is that it's bad, also in this year I've seen two different therapists come to my highschool to talk, both just basically shat on us (as in young people, teens) that we stay too much on our phone, provided no actual solution, didn't talk with, just talked about. I just feel like I'm unforgivable, there's things I've done that I don't think I could tell anyone, it's not something illegal or harmful to anyone, just deeply ashamed. Sorry for the long talk, I've tried to keep it short, though I feel like I've missed some stuff. Any suggestions? Or just some words would be nice.
