Eastern Europeans are known to have bonier faces than Western Europeans.
Some of the most beautiful people Ive ever seen were while traveling through Eastern Europe. I think there is a slight Asiatic influence to their looks, which would explain the more pronounced cheekbones.

Its not always asian influence, remember the coldest areas in europe are in North-east europe, and northern climates favor the development of infantilized features... (littler noses, rounder faces, etc)

This, I think the English nowadays (and probably also before) resemble much more the Irish and specially scot and welsh , compared to germans and any other continentals.
Smash said the English look more like Danes rather than Germans. Nice selective quotation there. They look more like Danes and Dutch than Germans. Germany is a big country so geographically they decrease in similarity to the English the further away from that north/west region you go.
Carleton S coon never ever went to europe, I give more credit to people who have traveled than to those who make wild guesses from thousand of kilometers away.
You know you've been informed of this Debian, that Coon merely rewrote Ripley's 1899 book the Races of Europe, and much of the data came from John Beddoe among others. Your "wild guesses" excuse is based on your clueless ignorance of the actual facts here. Please tell us why you're a better source. Some 700 posts and 95% of them are how you think the British Isles are unfairly labeled northern European.
Neither, there's probably more English than German DNA in the American genepool (if one includes all the mixes, plus blacks and natives), but a lot of Americans are just mutts. It varies regionally, of course. If you go to New York City, the 'typical' look is more dark featured, Italian/Jewish, if you went to Minnesota, more blondes. The most 'English' parts of the US would be like New England except Boston and parts of CT.
I can usually tell an Italian (of poor stock) from a northern European from a mile away, as easily as I can tell a non-white from a white. The whole idea that northern Italians look northern European is exaggerated. I went to Milan and even Como, and the people there didn't look much different to those in Naples.
