The assignment for this project is divided into two parts:

Development Drawings:
- Develop five heads based on your prior drawings that you are satisfied with.
- Concentrate on the features and details such as the tilt of the eye, the shape of the nose, and the form of the lips. Use these drawings to explore and refine the facial features.
New Drawings:
- Create five brand new head drawings from scratch.
- Work through the entire workflow from the initial sketch to detailing the soft tissue forms around the features like the lips.

This approach allows you to refine your skills both by developing existing works and by creating new ones, focusing on detailed facial features.

For this one I tried to apply a 3 values study according to the volumes of the face. But with hard edges only

2 studies that gave me a hard time, especially the second one. I had a really hard time understanding the planes of the cheekbone. I needed to do some tracing on the reference. I also did some skull studies, to better understand the cheek and visualize the anterior and lateral planes of the face.

This is my final assignment for the head drawing and construction course. I did the five drawings from the previous one and the five new ones. I did some basic shading because why not? I still need a lot of practice but I feel like this class sent me on the right path. I love Michael's teaching and I feel I have improved drawing the head. Most importantly, as I got further into each lesson, I understood that the method is awesome for inventions. (You could have a construction from one reference and change the features and lighting and design something different) If you can read this and have not taken this course, don't hesitate.

These are awesome. I'm on the second lesson right now. Really enjoying the course. Would be cool to see some of your stuff before you go the course.

this is what I had time for this week to do. I wanted to ask about the face in the upper right in particular, I had to draw that twice and still don't think I got it right. it might be the camera angle or something but it feels off in terms of structure.

Hello, Mr. Hampton. Since I attended a conference in the last days, I cannot finish my assignments before the deadline. Anyway I still keep practicing and your 11-step method is very efficient. The draft of the right one was finished when I was in the airplane. Based on your bonus lessons, I also tried to add shadows. Thank you again for this amazing course, which gradually realizes my dream.
