Ah, Almost Forgot About These Two

Whew, I had to leave her alone for awhile lol. I think it was the nose I had an issue with first. Also, my perspective was off (on the painting, not the sketch). I had to warp the crap out of her eyes and brow ridge as it was painted too high. I may post the original for comparison. I don't know why, but I like spending time painting the hair. Therapeutic, I guess.

This guy looks nothing like the reference. They could be brothers, but the other dude had a much narrower face. It was meant to be quick, anyway. Quick for me is about 4 hrs (for now). 

Focus on the Face ...

A few skull studies I did from a website  that sells anatomy models.

Following a technique for drawing the head by Proko and a Redmayne (Eddie or Simon?) sketch from GQ magazine. 

Notes and sketches from a Glen Vilppu DVD. I may watch it again.

Notes and sketches from the same dvd. 

Decided to try my hand at the head without reference. I forgot that the face isn't as wide as the head so it's a little off around the eyes. That extra spacing on each side should account for the temporal area and zygomatic process (Yeah, that's right. I've been watching the Acland Human Anatomy DVDs, also. Foramen Magnum. We DO have a hole in our heads).
