These are some pictures that I looked at for my girl character. Some of these are anime style.I think the anime style is too complicated often. I like the 1st picture of the girl with orange hair more because of the way the face is exaggerated.
This is the character of the girl in my animation digitalized. I liked the look of girl. I found it difficult to draw the right mouth at first. I wasn't sure if I should make the lips red or not so I tried it anyway. Although the eyes looked good, they were not the right ones I thought. After doing the research into the differences of a mother and a daughter, I realised that if the mother has red lips and the daughter doesn't it looks ok. Other differences were the shape of the face, eyes and the ears. Making the mother wear earings would help. The research helped me create mother for my character.
When drawing a character of a mother and her children, it is important the the characters are based on each other and it should look like they and related. The style used for the characters should be the same. I had created my character of the girl but creating her mother was difficult so I looked up on the internet images of cartoon mothers and daughters to see how they look when compared to each other. This helped me a lot.
These are pictures of girls that I found on the internet. I had to examine the look of girls eyes more. The eyes I were drawing in my rough sketches were turning out wrong. I had to choose a very easy to draw style. I don't like the very first one. Whichever look I went for in the end, they had to be bgi in size. This is where the exaggeration principle would come in.
