Ah good old Rin. She should be in her late 30-40s but barely looks it. By EoV She's supposed to be in her mid 50s but hasn't radically changed appearance wise. Maybe it's just good genes.

Worse the lack of facial shading in the actual pages seems to have made her white... whoops.

Many thanks to everyone who posted! We're starting to have a nice collection here! It's very useful to be able to compare all these characters in term of what makes them look 'just a little bit aged'.

first shoutout to all the lovely 30+ yo characters in main or major roles
we don't have enough of them!

second here is how i draw my 30's kids

they don't have exact ages but the guy is "late 30s" and the lady is "early 30s"... close enough?

on that topic, while people do age differently, overall it doesn't seem that stuff like wrinkles and silver hair settle in until like sometime in late 30s or 40s. But that's just an observation?

That's what I think too. I think that's why I find the 30' so difficult to draw: there is nothing really new happening then.
Teenagers change drastically every year/couple of years. Young adults change less, but their faces still develop in a visible way. Then around the mid-40 you can really start seeing the first clear signs of aging.
But the 30'? I'm actually myself well advanced into my 30' and I can't see a change from my late 20' when comparing pictures, except skin texture but only very detailed drawings would show that. I may be lucky, but I still think it's generally an age that does not have strong physical characteristics associated with.

My character Odansae is around his mid 30s. His beard makes him look older than his age.

I also have Belinda whose in her mid 30s too and aged horribly. She looks like a lich lol

I have perceived this character in comics as 27-28 years old guy (i.e. near my own age). Don't know why.

I think that is not your fault. maybe he looks like that. I can hardly tell, I can not look at him without knowing how old is he.
