Head Critiques

Hi everyone, I've been doing these 15-25 minute drawings focusing on the lay-in, proportions, line art and capturing the features correctly according to the perspective of the head, any feedback is appreciated, thank you!

Wow, I love these!! Very beautiful! @felipev99
I don't know if I am in the position to give feedback, but here are some things I notice:
- Maybe some more indication of plane changes in the face, for example between forehead and temple / front and side of the head. You mainly make (great) use of contourlines at the moment, maybe a bit more lines within the faces would give them a more '3D look'.
- I love how you leave certain lines out or make them very soft; sometimes the correct placement of just some lines is enough to describe the features very beautfifully. I do feel like some structure of those features gets lost though.
- I would like to see more necks, and how the head connects to the neck.
Well, It was hard for me to find things I would improve. I hope my feedback was justified.
I am curious what others have to say!
Thank you for sharing these beautiful drawings!

Thank you for your critique Leon! These drawings were focused on the lay in because I had a drawing critiqued here, and most of the trouble was there in the lay in and I wanted to Focus on that, but yeah I think I must do some more work now to describe the forms and take them a little bit farther.
On your second point I'm having trouble seeing where the structure gets lost, is it in some noses and lips maybe? And you're totally right about the neck, now that I see it they look like floating faces!
Thanks again
