I've been religiously drawing women for years, whenever I try to widen my horizons on male facial structure, at most it looks like an early teenage boy. How can I hack this into a more mature male portraying face? (He's supposed to be in his mid-twenties)

When drawing male faces, you can create a more masculine look by defining the jawline and facial shape with more angular lines. Men’s faces tend to be longer and wider, with more prominent features, whereas women’s faces are often softer and rounder. You should also pay attention to the shapes and angles of the eyes, nose, and brow, as that can help you too. Nevertheless, keep in mind that not all men have strong, angular features. There could be some that may have softer facial features, so it honestly just depends on the individual you’re trying to draw.

Oh yeah you can also add facial hair!

I hope this somewhat helped! I'm not very good at explaining things 😭 so I apologize if this explanation sucked balls
