added comment inHow to Draw the Head – Side View
Asked for help
I wanted to post my profile drawings I got better towards the end I really like the last profiles I did. I chose to draw the model in Number 7 because he had a mustache for an upper lip and I liked that and below him on the right I chose Jeff Bezos because of his nose. I chose the older gentleman on the right because he had a pronounced lower jaw and a awesome nose. I drew him a lot younger if I added all the wrinkles he had I would have lost the land marks that helped me draw him. Thanks for the view! Will

Hi @Will Heflin, nice work!
The shapes and proportions look good.
- You might want to make the front plane angle in less. In the 3D Model: The Loomis Head, the front plane is vertical.
- Try to light your drawings better when photographing, and try to photograph them with your camera straight on, and not from above. It will make critiquing easier and do the drawings more justice 😎👍
Hope this helps :)

Nice!
- I think you would benefit from drawing through the forms (drawing also what's on the non-visible side, lightly). This becomes a huge help when drawing the jaw in difficult positions.
Also, practice drawing the head from imagination. It's a great way to test & deepen your knowledge. I like following this routine:
1. Draw from imagination
2. Check were I'm off, with reference. Studying the part I got wrong.
3. Draw again from imagination, spinning the object into a different position.
Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!
