#XPPenTutorial Practice - How to Draw Head
After watching the tutorial, I realized that my usual workflow fits well with the circle-and-triangle method, though there's a slight difference with my technique but a huge help for me. I also still start with a circle, but I second the eyes as it gives me a strong foundation (and also because I love to draw eyes, but hair is still what I enjoy the most), then I use the triangle to establish the jaw and head direction more accurately. Doing these steps helps me to build the rest of the head more natural and consistent for me, even when I'm doing different angles.

how to draw head
how to draw head?One technique that helped me draw heads better was starting with a simple circle and adding a jawline before drawing facial features. I start with basic facial shapes to get idea of face structure and to look overall symmetry.After drawing basic structure i proceed with flat colors and further detailing.visual representation of how i do it:

#XPPenTutorialPractice / Drawing Heads
I always struggled with keeping the head "in place" when changing angles. But the cirlce and triangle method fixed that pretty fast. The key was using the circle to define the skull and the triangle to guide the direction of the jaw/chin BEFORE worrying about details (eyes, nose...)Before, I'd try to eyeball everything.Nailing the basic structure first made it easier to adjust the perspective!I did two rough sketches in different poses in angles that always gave me trouble, a lineart and then a colored version to finish it off.#XPPenTutorialPractice

Drawing heads
When I draw heads, I like to first add a circle for the base of the head and a shield-like shape for the jaw. Then, I add two lines where I want the eyes to be, ensuring the line for the top of the eye is at the same level as the top of the ear, and the middle line is positioned where I want the midpoint of the eyes to be. When I draw the eyes, I make sure that they are the same distance apart as one eye between them. When I draw the mouth, I make sure it is on the same level as where the jaw curves.

Head drawing entry #XPPenTutorialPractice
One technique I use to draw heads better is to start with basic shapes and add detail as I go on. Adding details early on can cause problems because you need to establish the 3D shape of the head first.

I tried the how to draw head XPPenTutorialPractice
I tried the circle triangle techniques although they are rough, but this techniques sometimes work and some time not, in front angle it works 90% but in other angle you need one more out line to show the different features What i personally use is mix of the circle triangle technique + intuition and mostly it worksWhen it doesn't work, i just try to change the size of the drawing XPPenTutorialPractice

How To Draw Head ( MY STYLE ) #XPPenTutorialPractice
Hey guys! Im Hyenartens, an emerging artist.I prefer drawing the head using two overlapping circles instead of a triangle or a square. It makes placing the ears and eyes much simpler, especially since I don't use the exact same alignment for every design. For the side profile, I use the same head structure as a base and simply add a small protrusion for the nose and chin. After that, I just let the rest flow into my own style. Heres a little example below.

XPPen Community Tutorials EP.6 (head)
HERE'S MY ENTRY take note: I only do traditional drawing for this time since I don't have any drawing tablet or gadget to use for digital drawing. Hopefully I get the chance to win this time, because I truly want to improve more in digital too.MY INSIGHTMy insight from practicing head drawing is that using guidelines and basic shapes can help me improve the accuracy of a person’s face, regardless of the angle or proportions. As you can see in my drawing, I used lines and shapes to better identify and place the facial features, such as the nose, eyes, eyebrows, and mouth. I will continue studying and practicing this technique so I can better understand the proper placement and proportions of facial features.front viewthree-quarter left viewthree-quarter right viewleft side viewride side view#XPPenTutorialPractice
