ASSIGNMENTS

The assignment for this project is divided into two parts:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

Here are my five final drawings for this lesson. I'm pretty happy with how things are coming together and all I've learned in this class. I did do a lot of extra practice of the eight-step forms in between lessons, probably a few score of them from lots of different references. I definitely like this model better than the basic Loomis head. I also found I needed to break out and really focus on each feature for awhile - well, eyes and noses at least, they are still the most challenging but I filled a few sketchbook pages of each of them. There are little nuances I'm discovering like when the model head proportions need to be tweaked and the big variety of features and expressions.
