How to draw the face from any angle.png

ASSIGNMENTS
I did the assignment both in a traditional and digital format. While I feel like I understand the general shape of the head, I struggle with the placement of the features and the proportions. I would really appreciate some feedback. Overall, I enjoyed the assignment.
Getting back into this with some traditional lay-ins at the Cafe this morning. Started with with Loomis (just to try) but went back to ol' faithful Hampton! Loving the Facely 3D app! (Excuse the little notes to myself)

Hey there, Marvin, thank you very much for posting these. A couple of notes for you. One is to be careful with the sign in this general proportion of the sphere that you use to start at the head. Remember that the skull shape is actually deeper than it is wider or taller so when you're looking at the face or the head from the side You need to have a little bit elongated looking back Another one is to pay attention to the module about facial features once you get to it so you can see how each of the facial features combines with the shape of a skull to make everything look and feel three-dimensional
Ear placement was harder than I expected, especially when the head tilts up or down. On some angles I also wasn't sure where to cut the side plane circle. Facely3D helped a lot — rotating the head with lighting on made these much easier to understand.
Will keep these as my daily warm-up.

Great stuff Lucy, fantastic proportion control, and love what you are doing also with the line quality. Nice and sketchy without feeling messy. I do see that the ear seems to move around a bit, but I don't think is anything to worry about, as you go through the course these features will fall into place. For now I'd say looks great!
Did this yesterday and today right before bed. I definitely struggle with keeping proportions in line and also keeping these quick. Going to get started on the skull tomorrow to hopefully improve my accuracy and speed on drawing the head. I welcome any critique, thank you!

You have lots of really good different angles in here Darian, I think worrying too much about speed might be counterproductive, instead, I'd try to focus on the accuracy, and the line quality, and the speed will come by itself. Most of the speed comes not from drawing faster, but making fewer mistakes
Tried to keep these quick. I definitely struggle with placing the side plane of the head (size and location) as well as the ears. Will definitely use this as a consistent warm up!

Good job Chanel, here is a video for you https://www.loom.com/share/60d9549452b4479d90e7988ec4b5f93d
Hello!
Would appreciate the feedback for my 1st assignment, I really struggled with proportions and top/bottom angles.
Thank you!

Hey Still Bee, good work, here is some help with those hard angles https://www.loom.com/share/6484d7c45c564585a96b7ec94ee0bd38
My first assignment submission here on Proko. Trying to stay accountable, I really want to get the most out of this course.

Honored that your first submission in Proko is here inmy course :) Here is a quick rant video for you https://www.loom.com/share/21d65dffff484769ad489c29c2ec2c97
First assignment here. Feels good to get into drawing some heads! I'm not always confident if/how to place the vertical midline. How do you decide which are the most critical strokes to put down? And which to leave out?
First day giving this a go. I think I have a hard time wrapping my head around the volume of the back and when the face tilts down away from the viewer.
Adding this to my daily warmup routine. Are they too rough? I kept everything in it no erasing just a few undo. This is how I sketch, search and think due a warmup session.

Good stuff Alex! Here is a quick video for you about line quality https://www.loom.com/share/810063f136434d819b1375f6c64165a6
Mis primeras cinco imagenes. Prometo hacer este ejercicio diariamente hasta que complete todo el curso.
Me ha encantado.
I think I struggle with determining the side planes of the head, as well as top views and bottom views. Had a lot of fun with these and can’t wait to do more.
I spent around 1 hour and 50 min on these. I tried not to rush but to observe. I also tried my best not to overthink it. I used the different methods you mentioned, and sometimes I just drew what I could connect without thinking which method to use
I started drawing along with the head drill video and the last 5 are my own study using the facely app. I find at some angles I'm really unsure where the eye orbitals are meant to be placed. That and my heads started looking male?
The facely app is great! The movement is just a little unintuitive for me personally. I keep moving the eyes or mouth instead of the head and when I move her side to side it feels like I am swinging her in an arc from her jaw so I struggle to just move her face to the left or right without getting some strange positions.

Hey Jade, here is a quick feedback for you about the position of the orbital cavity and some other small notes: https://www.loom.com/share/ca13c2fd39b740e495971717ebd7d1ba
I feel like I've done the Loomis construction for forever (and I've tried several other methods with diminishing returns). It's hard for me to figure out how big to make the ellipses and how to get them in the correct perspective on the sphere. I feel like I'm just guessing where to put them. Any help on that or anything else I'm missing would be super awesome. (Btw, the facely3D tool is super awesome and easy to use. Thanks!!!!!!)

Very nice work Caden!! you really nailed the depth of the cranium with these, which is something a lot of artists miss. Here is a quick video for ya: https://www.loom.com/share/3d8ccafeb2874e4d95152104d4aac525
