Michael Hampton shows how to tweak head construction to fit different character types, focusing on male and female differences. For female characters, he suggests using softer curves, a less defined bone structure, and more delicate features. He recommends keeping the forehead more vertical, the jawline less sharp, and the brow ridge subtle. For male characters, he emphasizes stronger angles, a wider jaw, a more prominent brow ridge, and a slanted forehead. By adjusting proportions and planes, Hampton demonstrates how to achieve these traits while sticking to the basics of head construction.
