Holy Smokes, Mr @Michael Hampton I am a bit ashamed to ask this question after all the lessons and exercises (which I have seen and done. I'm just missing the latest one) but I am still confused with the brow line, and the length and width of the jaw. I mean, is there like a "landmark" for the eyebrow position, like the center line of the sphere in the Loomis method? I understand the "glasses" metaphor for the angle, but I mean the initial placement. How high or low in the ball is the initial brow line? How do I know if I'm placing it correctly? In the exercises I was just guessing based on the reference. Regarding the length, you explained is 1/3 of the total space of the head in the front, but how about in the extreme poses? How do I know if I am shortening or lengthening my lines too much? Is there a point of reference, a landmark in the ball, or in those angles or something to measure? Same thing with jaw width. Do I just guess by eye? I hope you or anyone in the community can help me. Thank you so much in advance.

Finally caught back up with the class! When would I need to upload this assignment by to be included in feedback session?
There's usually a dedicated project video that'll note what the deadline for assignment submission is. There's probably going to be a project video next for gestural perspective.

I'd like to try my hand at these. Are there photo references available or should I just use the video?

There will be some reference images provided when the assignment video comes out next week! But there are also a lot of good additional photo sets in the Tools area that you can check out too.
I believe this is the specific proko model pack used in this demo:

Here are a few free resources I have.

I believe MH uses https://www.bodiesinmotion.photo/ which I think costs money.

when you divide up the head into the top 2/3 and the bottom 1/3, is the bottom line of the 2/3 the bottom of the circle or where the jaw meets the circle? It looks like the jaw attach point here:
