Learn how to construct a head from scratch with a focus on structure, proportions, and facial features. This lesson guides you through each step that we’ve learned so far, from shaping the head and jaw to adding realistic details like the eyes and nose. You'll also explore how to use planes and forms to create a more lifelike appearance.

Hi, First of all - what a great course! Thank you so much for this guidance. secondly - I was wondering - when understanding the construction and features of a person, can one look at a portrait but sketch a different expression?
Michael Hampton
Definitely! That sounds like a very challenging but doable assignment. You would just need to learn the major muscles of expression and then think of them wrapping over the surface forms we developed here. Once done, you would imagine each muscle pulling to create the expression you're after.

Face maps! Eyes came out small especially the far side, need to refer back to my steps before going darker also checking my work in a mirror is something I never practice, but great teachings.
