Big thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video.

In this video, I'm going to show you a method on how I draw the face in the head.

I'm also going to be showing you guys a study technique on how I'm able to draw the face in any angle, while also sharing some guide on how I personally stylize.

Okay so the short answer for this video is going to be references, but the longer answer is techniques and drawing methods, which we'll explore in this video.

When it comes to drawing and studying the face, the way I do it can be broken down into three faces.

Method, Shapes, Anatomy Structure, and Stylization.

These concepts are easy to understand but they're going to be challenging to master.

Let's start off with the basic method, called the Loomis method.

You've probably heard this a million times already.

The reason being is it's the most simple but solid method to draw the face.

There are tons of other ways that you could draw the head, but I've started drawing with this one and I've seen most professional apply this method, especially with anime and manga.

You see, it's impossible to draw the face without any anatomy knowledge.

Thankfully we have drawing methods like the Loomis method

that can help us get a hint of anatomy without overloading our brain too much.

Okay so the first step is draw a circle.

Make it at least a decent circle.

Not like this one or this one or this- Two thousand years later.

Like this.

It's also very important to look at this not just a circle but a sphere.

In fact always think in three-dimensional.

You don't have to draw this but keep it in mind.

This circle is going to be the cranium.

Also, don't worry about the name so much.

Just focus on what I'm doing.

Next is we're going to draw some lines to indicate the eyebrows.

This line will wrap around the whole circle.

That's why it's important to think in three dimensional because you're going to follow that curve of the sphere.

We're also going to add a center line.

This is going to indicate where the head is facing.

Then we're going to draw a smaller circle again.

Here we go again.

You have to stop drawing circles.

This dumb circle would help us indicate the size of the face and to add some dimension.

It's like cutting a portion of a ball.

Then we'll add a crossing line to it, with a vertical line extending over the head.

We're also going to add another line below the portion that we cut.

From there we're going to add the jaw.

Start from the side of the face and connect them using the center line.

From there you could add the necessary facial anatomy, starting with the eyes.

When drawing the eyes, make sure that there's one eye distance between the two eyes to ensure that they're proportional.

Then add the nose, mouth and ears.

is refining the head.

Here you can notice that the guide seems wrong and overall doesn't look good.

So this is the part where you make some decisions and changes.

You don't always have to trust the method.

If the drawing feels off then it's most likely off, but it still depends on your experience.

Again, you don't have to follow the method perfectly.

For me, as I gained experience, I began to rely less on the method since I already know how the head works, but it's still a solid technique to follow if you're not sure what you're doing.

Okay, we finally have a decent head structure that we can work on.

From here you could add your character features and designs.

And eventually have something like this.

Probably not like this since it did take me a lot of practice to execute this properly.

So to get used to the Loomis method, always try drawing with a reference.

Try and break down how the head works using the guidelines.

Reference is really important if you want to get used to the human proportions.

If you're struggling to draw a head from a reference, you can trace it, but don't trace them like this.

Instead, break them down using the Loom's guidelines, and then copy that guideline and draw from there.

If you're struggling with an angle, try again, but limit yourself only with 3 attempts on each reference.

If you still can't get it right by the third attempt, move on to another reference and come back to it later.

Don't stay too long on one reference or else you will only get stuck and frustrated.

Always move forward and take breaks occasionally.

You could do them fast like 1-2 minutes on each reference or you could go slow with 5-10 minutes, but it is better if you balance them both.

My key to drawing the face is I always start with the eyes.

You don't have to but I once heard from a professional that if you can get the eyes to look right, then the whole face is gonna be fine.

Not the exact quote but something like that.

That's why I prioritize the eyes most of the time.

But I still think having a good head structure is also really important.

I think the eyes are the most important feature of the face because the eyes are the window to our soul, and the eyes are the focal point of the face, which is the point of interest most of the time.

People are more likely to pay attention to the eyes compared to the other facial features, that's why I like to simplify the nose and the mouth.

Big thanks to Squarespace and let's get back to the video.

Alright let's move on to shapes.

If you still have no idea what our fundamental is, this is it.

There's a lot of fundamental but I think the most important ones are shapes and my personal favorite anatomy.

So to further improve your skills we're going to be using another method

that is really useful and has saved me a lot of time when drawing the face.

And that is drawing the cube.

This is going to be your exercise.

Draw a bunch of cubes whenever you can, because cube is going to be your best friend.

It's going to help you understand a lot of stuff and would help you a lot with drawing heads.

A cube is the most useful shape out there.

They're like vegetables.

They're boring, but they're good for you.

100

So start drawing cubes.

101

Bonus points if you apply perspective.

102

Okay, so try drawing cubes from different angles like this.

103

This is a drawing exercise to help you understand how space works.

104

I've seen some professional artists practice this, even though they're already so good.

105

So it might sound simple, but it can make a big difference in how you draw faces or anything else in general.

106

Drawing cubes this way helps you get a feel for three dimension, so your drawing doesn't look flat or unrealistic.

107

The neat thing about this exercise is that it's very flexible.

108

You can draw cubes anywhere you like, from above, from the side, or at any interesting angles.

109

Every time you draw cubes, you're basically building a foundation that will help you understand how spaces work.

110

You could also try and break down references using just cubes.

111

It's going to help you a lot to understand the facial structure and proportions.

112

You'll eventually develop a concrete mental image of the face every time you draw simple cubes.

113

anatomical structure.

114

Most people skips this part because it's not the most exciting and pleasing process, and it's very complicated to draw.

115

You won't even see most of it by the end of the process.

116

So what's the point, right?

117

Well, it's actually the whole point, because this is the key to drawing accurate and proportional faces.

118

But don't worry, we're only going to focus on the basics and not memorize every muscle on the face.

119

But let's first start with the skull, an essential part in understanding the face.

120

To construct the skull we're gonna use the knowledge about shapes and the Loomis method.

121

The skull can be simplified with a bunch of shapes, spheres for the eye sockets, a triangle for the nose, and a sphere for the mouth area.

122

Again, use the Loomis method for the guidelines.

123

You don't have to master everything about the skulls, but I do suggest understanding the simple structure because it's gonna be useful later on.

124

So yeah, just show a bunch of skulls until you get it.

125

User reference by the way.

126

Okay, moving on to the ratios of the face.

127

The face can be divided into three equal parts.

128

The forehead, the middle part, and the lower jaw.

129

It is best to imagine it as planes.

130

That is why it is really important to have a level of understanding of space here.

131

By the way, this is mostly consistent, and it's usually the standard for most faces, but it can be altered by some stuff like age, perspective, stylistic preference, and other stuff.

132

So here are some examples on how you can adjust those ratios in accordance to your style.

133

For example, for acute and feminine proportions, you would want to make the forehead area the biggest, and then for the middle and bottom part,

134

you can adjust them however you like as long as it's relatively smaller than the head.

135

Another example would be drawing masculine or male characters.

136

This is much more simpler because all you have to do is follow the standard ratios.

137

You can adjust them a bit but don't overdo it because it may look off.

138

Now let's talk about everyone's favorite angle, the 3 4th angle.

139

I'm not really sure why this is popular but I think it has something to do with depth.

140

Let's take this for example.

141

Imagine the head as a cube.

142

This is the head facing front while this is a 3 4th angle.

143

See the difference?

144

The front facing cube looks flat, while the 3-4th angle has more depth and perspective.

145

It also has more sides which means you'll have something more to look at.

146

So let's study the 3-4th angle of the face.

147

The most prominent feature is going to be the side of the face, or the cheek area.

148

If we look at the skull, the cheek is poking out, so the result would be this iconic angle.

149

There are different ways that you could draw this.

150

For male characters, they're usually sharp and straight, and the cheekbones are usually visible but it still depends on the age and your style preference.

151

For female or younger characters the cheekbones are less visible and the cheek area looks rounder and softer.

152

Also, only take references from real life.

153

This will ensure that your drawings is as realistic as it can be

154

and when you're choosing references make sure that it's taken by a professional with good quality lighting, composition and other stuff.

155

A good source would be contrast.

156

I would avoid photos with distractions.

157

It's better to draw something that is natural with most of the face being visible and clear.

158

Always remember, when using reference you don't actually just copy.

159

You're kind of recreating the image and that's how I mostly draw.

160

I've already developed mental blueprint for how to draw

161

and I just use that blueprint to reconstruct the reference that I'm looking at.

162

Does that make sense?

163

Anyway, the planes of the face.

164

This is the Asaro head.

165

It's a 3D model of the head to help you understand the facial anatomy better.

166

This is what you want to study

167

if you mainly want to paint the face realistically or

168

if you want to understand the face in terms of lighting and structure.

169

I suggest getting used to the techniques that I mentioned earlier because you're really gonna need it here.

170

Using the guidelines and the ratios that we talked about earlier, you're going to be copying a bunch of these.

171

There's not much I could say about this

172

because I think you're going to understand it better if you try it for yourself.

173

I suggest drawing the planes with the lines first without using values yet, also to avoid overcomplicating things.

174

So how do you stylize a face?

175

Well, here's what I would do.

176

I would create a reference board with all of my favorite artworks and artists, and I would just redraw them.

177

That's it.

178

I would consistently study them over a period of time, analyze their art and imitate them, because if you want to force an art style, you have to be great at copying and at the same time understanding what you're doing.

179

So you basically have to get fundamental knowledge and copying skills if you want to learn an art style effectively.

180

Here's an example.

181

My favorite style of art is anime and manga, so it's only natural to look at anime and manga for reference, right?

182

Well, yeah, but I have a better idea.

183

So what I would do is look at Pinterest.

184

There you could find some fan arts, visual anime illustrations, and so much more.

185

Suddenly, references look more dynamic and expressive.

186

That's because anime is meant for animation, so they're not really reference material, unless you're planning on making animations.

187

But you can still study animation frames because it is still a carefully thought out production.

188

So technically, it still does contain valuable reference material such as composition, posting, lighting, anatomy, and other stuff.

189

Since my goal is to improve my illustration, of course I would look through other artists that are putting most effort in a single frame.

190

So you would naturally look at other people's illustration and paintings.

191

And I prefer semi-realism in my art because it just looks so interesting.

192

Artists like Ilya Kupchinov and Krenz.

193

They're such perfect examples of effectively applying realism to something that they stylize.

194

And the reason why their art looks so good is because they look real.

195

Lighting is an important fundamental when making believable art.

196

That's why when you know fundamentals, you would know art.

197

Imitating or creating an art style is going to be easier at this point because you know exactly what you're doing.

198

Moving on to how you can stylize a face.

199

In anime, eyes are the most prominent feature.

200

They're really expressive and you could recognize an anime character with just the eyes.

201

Most of the anime characters have the same anatomy blueprint, but they bend most of the fundamentals like the facial anatomy.

202

Most of the time, the mouth and nose are less likely to exist.

203

They're not as expressive as the eyes, but the mouth can also be expressive.

204

Hair is also important in anime.

205

They usually don't follow the rules of physics.

206

So you can be expressive with the hair as much as you want.

207

In terms of the overall head shape and appearance, they usually simplify its construction to make it easier to replicate.

208

That's why most of the anime characters have the same face syndrome, because they're following a standard.

209

So those are just examples of facial features that you can modify.

210

You can go in-depth on how you can actually stylize them in another video.

211

So to summarize, if you want a realistic or semi-realistic art style, study real people and realistic proportions.

212

If you want to learn style, look at other people's art or just watch anime and study some frames.

213

Again, fundamentals over design.

214

And that's it.

215

Hopefully this video helps you and as always my friend, see you on the next one.

216

Peace.
