I made the face too narrow too. I think it's because I try to convert the picture's proportion to an A4 sized paper and that causes distortion.

I made the face a bit too narrow I think but overall for a first attempt I think it's not too bad!

still working on this one, only drawn faint lines so far so that i can easliy fix things later, gonna take a food break on come back after my brain gotten the chance to rest. hopefully it still feels ok after the break.

I'll have to try this some more because I'm not really sure I get it. I had to have the video up as I did it

This was hard. I took so much time to measure out the proportions but when I finished I could tell something didn't look right. Once I overlayed it with the reference it became clear the eyes were WAY too high.

My neck hurts 😂 cant find a good posturento draw

I like the end result of this sketch, but I will have to learn to have more fun with the approach. I had taken numerous measurements to get accurate primary, secondary, and tertiary shapes, however it is rather mind-dumbing haha. With more practice I presume it will become physically and mentally easier to develop these proportional framework sketches.

hey guys, i continue to practice with the second portrait. Pretty hard to be good to catch the good proportions, need to be patient and focus.

my second try. i think i got it much better this time.

i think ive spent 1h 30- 2 h on this. i dont know what i did wrong on the head (i mean why is mine so small), because i did the same measuring as stan did. pls help me :(

There is definitely a better way to do this. This took me much longer and when looking back at Stan’s example I put too much detail where it wasn’t necessary. Even with all that time I definitely believe some proportional errors are still present especially the width. Simplifying is difficult for me it seems. I don’t quite understand why. Anyways, appreciate those who took their time to read to the end. 😊

creo que cometi varios errores al momente de medir

This is the most difficult project up until this point for me ,but regardless it has been one of the most enjoyable. It is because of the "mathematical" nature of trying to get everything right where it goes that it was difficult for me because if you're off then you're wrong but it was also the reason I enjoyed it as well. You immediately get to see what you did wrong. They're in order from first to latest so Josh Brolin is the most recent I completed and I believe I improved just from these few. I have notes in my sketchbook on what went wrong but my main problem seemed to be messing up a measurement and then that one mistake snow balling into the others and the other mistake was messing up the perspective (mainly Feyd Rautha). I will keep working on accurate measurements as I move on and will continue to train my eye for eyeballing measurements. Any feedback or critique is appreciated by anybody. The only critique I won't accept is Josh's hairline because I pretty well landed it. I gave the man a clean lineup. I'm joking of course but I have to take my wins where I can get them and my man's hairline is lookin' pretty crispy.

Oh, man. This was very hard for me. How do you actually go about measuring? I'm digital, and so I could measure the subject directly, but I didn't do that, because I'm not too sure if you're meant to xD. I also drew the bottom of the nose on the line for the tip of it, haha. I tried to use my stylus as a measuring tool, but I'm having trouble deciding where to begin and finding units to use. I've got a lot of work to do.

I haven't usually measured proportions before now, but I must say, it helped quite a bit with making the drawing look real! I'm pretty proud of my work on this, although it probably is nowhere close to perfect. I'd say the facial features, particularly the eyes, were the most difficult part of the drawing.

This is my first time drawing in an 18x24 pad. My horizontal proportions are off. Would love some tips on how to improve!

This took a lot longer than I thought it would. Part of it was me holding off on doing it because I knew I'd suck at it, but the more I worked on it, the more I felt things started to click. I will admit I started to rush towards the end, but overall, I think my proportions aren't as terrible as I thought they would be, but still pretty terrible. Also, my line quality still needs a lot of work. I'm looking forward to getting better and learning more. I apologize for the bad quality.

Some proportions are ok, i made the face too large and the face doesn't quite look the same

This actually was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Found myself over-thinking where to place shapes. Definitely need to work on this,
