Anyone notice how horrible Leia's face looks in the black series? They do a great job on Luke and Han, but butcher Leia...and I always had the biggest crush on Carrie Fisher when I was a kid...I used to dream about saving her from the clutches of the Empire LoL...can't believe they mangled her face so badly on that toy.
Also...take a look at all the Padme figures...Natalie Portman is one of the all time hottest women, outside of Olivia Wilde and Keira Knightley. ..who actually all look very similar, but that's neither here nor there, the point is, here's this unbelievably gorgeous woman and the toys they make of her are hideous...how is it they capture the males facial features so well but totally jack up the females?

Well there is an actual real reason for this and it is much simpler than you think. Females have smoother and finer facial structure than men. When it comes to sculpting it is EXTREMELY hard for a sculptor to capture the smooth fine details of a female face. Men on the other hand have much stronger facial features like cheeks, jawline, facial hair, forehead ridges, deeper set eyes, ect... that allow a sculptor to capture the likeness of a man much easier. I have a degree in art and, trust me, capturing a female face in any medium is not the easiest... Sculpting , painting, whatever. IF you can do it well then props to you out there in the artist world. Faces were the bane of my art life so I studied photography as one of my majors.
