been waiting for this one! Really puts the others more into perspective as well. Not really able to develop the eye socket in 3d like you did for the front view at the end, but I'll assume we'll go more into that in later lessons

Thank you again for another great lesson! I'm a little confused about sunglasses versus the bean, how do they match each other? Is it the subject of the next video?

Holy Smokes, Mr @Michael Hampton I am a bit ashamed to ask this question after all the lessons and exercises (which I have seen and done. I'm just missing the latest one) but I am still confused with the brow line, and the length and width of the jaw. I mean, is there like a "landmark" for the eyebrow position, like the center line of the sphere in the Loomis method? I understand the "glasses" metaphor for the angle, but I mean the initial placement. How high or low in the ball is the initial brow line? How do I know if I'm placing it correctly? In the exercises I was just guessing based on the reference. Regarding the length, you explained is 1/3 of the total space of the head in the front, but how about in the extreme poses? How do I know if I am shortening or lengthening my lines too much? Is there a point of reference, a landmark in the ball, or in those angles or something to measure? Same thing with jaw width. Do I just guess by eye? I hope you or anyone in the community can help me. Thank you so much in advance.

Thanks so much for the detailed critique! You mentioned a couple of times that the tilt line and the line for the front of the face should be parallel, same for the brow / chin line. Doesn't that break perspective / foreshortening? And especially for the side of the face, I would expect it to have to go inwards, as the chin is more narrow than the brow.
