Description

Trying to give a character that hates everything and everyone a genuine smile is like ....hard.
Nothing looks right, no matter what type of smile it is.
So far I've settled on grinning or awkward since she doesn't smile much, it would be hard for her, and she would find it difficult to drop the 'I hate you all' act long enough to give more than just an awkward smile. I dunno.

I spent 30 minutes just trying to draw the mouth and it still looks just 'plastered on'. I can't seem to make her smile. Good thing it's very rare for her to do so.

The last one isn't all that bad looking. With some more fine adjusting I imagine it could work out for you just fine. Or just a complete redraw, since sometimes if you keep redoing one bit over and over, it'll never turn out good enough for you and a blank slate often helps.
