Ok, an update. I still can't get the anime vibe, I'll start to believe in magic and stuff, as I don't get anime stuff even when I like literally trace over an existing anime illustration, which defies logic (I don't trace but you get my point, maybe I should lol).
I've also tried to produce that characteristic "2.5D 3/4 jaw" from a low angle couple of times, with moderate success.
Also, I've tried to get the (non)flat face in 3/4 vibe (when the face behaves like it's a flat surface with floating elements and cheeks and jaw are rounded and flat at the same time, resulting in ears being close to the eye blahblah). With that I am fairly content.
But the style is killing me, I feel like a five year old trying to drive a truck without the manual.
