Simplifying the nose from real life then rotating the simple shape from imagination.

Please tell me if it's really necessary to draw the central line of the face (front plane) almost in the end, because for me the sooner I draw it, the easier it is for me to draw other features / planes. It's hard for me to draw jaw line and side plane rhythm if I don't draw the central line first. Is it okay? Or am I missing something?

Looks good! Try drawing through the forms so you can see what's on the other side. It's good practice to better understand how the forms sit in 3d space. I attached an example, it's not perfect as I'm also working on this myself. It helps to identify problems when I work on extreme angles for example. Try doing some more exercises from the 3D model and then from real life, eventually some from imagination. If you have trouble identifying the head angle from reference you can go back and try to pose the 3D model as in the reference after a couple attempts. As for when to draw the central line, do what works best for you. I draw it after the circle on side the cranium most of the time.

Almost halfway my goal for this lesson, I have been mostly focusing on the planes of the eye for now. If anyone has any tips how to approach this lesson or critique/advice let me know :)

First and third page from imagination went better than expected. Real life reference was harder than I thought. The ones with circled numbers I had more trouble with. Critique or advice is appreciated :) challenging exercise this one.

Final page from real life reference I used average proportions rather than from reference. I had trouble with the down angles of the head especially. Critique or advice would be appreciated.

Exaggerated poses, challenging lesson to think how u can exaggerate and how much. Had more trouble with the second drawing, my failed attempt is there too. Critique or advice is much appreciated.

@Patrick Bosworth here are some more Robo-Beans after your critique, I still have trouble with proportions and identifying the upper box and lower box placement on body sometimes. Checking my work digitally helps with improving though :) thanks

Final drawings for this lesson for now. I tried picking out poses that challenge me. Had a lot of trouble with some of these getting proportions right, especially 4th and last image. Critique is appreciated.

From drawing along with Stan, first picture is before watching example vids. Started doing digital halfway through as well since I want to get used to that too, still beginner at that. Drawings are oldest to newest.

For some reason I think I did the colored ones better than the pencil work which I tried to make a gesture drawing. I wanted to add less details as compared to the colored one. I would love to know what my problem is through a critique

Good work on the sketches! Like @Noe Luis said, focus more on the C, S and I curve lines. As for why the colored sketch looks better there are 2 reasons for that. 1. Colored pencils can only go so dark so mistakes will be less visible on paper compared to darker pencils. 2. The colored sketch you did is actually better and cleaner than what you did in the first uploaded sketch for example. But it is still comparable with the last sketch. I recommend to try and go for longer, cleaner strokes when drawing instead of short, messy ones like in the first sketch. Try practicing capturing the gesture with just 5-6 lines in 30-60 second sketches. And really go for the clean C, S and I lines. If you have trouble with cleaning up your line work try Ghosting your lines. It's where you plan out the line, go through the motion from your start point to the end point without touching the paper, and then execute the mark. You capture gesture well, keep working on the line work too. I hope this helped.

My work for this lesson, oldest to newest. Advice or critique would be much appreciated. First few pages are before watching Robo-Bean examples. When I was drawing with the example videos I did my sketch before Stan and then compared. If I was too far off I redid them. Last few pages are from Proko reference packs.
