Let’s explore constructing heads from various angles using the 8 Step Method. Starting with basic proportions and planes, we built up the structure of the skull, eye sockets, nose, mouth, and chin. Key points included maintaining perspective consistency, using overlapping forms to create depth, and thinking about surface changes to inform lighting.

Recently practiced by attempting to apply the steps thus far to a stylized reference, I’m excited at the results since I’m ultimately looking to draw manga. Thanks to this course I’m seeing and analyzing art in a totally new and fun light!
(Hopefully this was cool to post, I know everyone else were referencing real life photos…)

Didn't get through them all, looking forward to giving the other ones a crack to.

Any critique is welcome! Also, does anyone have any tips on how to make finding the temple/side plane of the head easier?

So a couple things the time limit made me realize that I average 8-10 minutes to get to this point I wonder if I should slow down. My perspective is usually out of wack and I believe I make the face too wide maybe. I intend on doing another twenty for the project. Also feed back is welcomed

Mr. Hampton or anyone else, could you provide feedback on this? I think I made the jaw too long because the Loomis rhythm doesn't look correct. Also looks like the features have "slid" down the lower half of the face. Perhaps my centerline is incorrect.
