![]() ![]() A little capital “A” shape, tipped on its side, with a curved crossbar to represent the eye and eyelids from the side view works pretty well here. Draw the eyeįrom this angle, I find it easier to place the eye first and indicate the socket around it. The top of the ‘L”-the top of the nose, is slightly inset into the front plane of the face where it then turns back up into the under-plane of the glabella. We’re going to indicate the nose in this view with a simple triangle or “N” shape with the typically upturned underside of the nose starting at, unsurprisingly, the base of the nose line where it meets the face plane. Place the earsĭraw a “C” shape between the brow line and nose line mark, adjacent to the vertical centre line to give the ear placement. The angle and softness of this curve will make your drawing’s face more feminine or masculine. Draw the jawĭraw the shape of the jaw from the bottom of the inner circle, bringing it down to the chin line.Ĭhanging the angle quite tightly at around a third of the way down between the two horizontal lines. Mark off a line approximately one third down the measurement between the nose and chin line to find the line for the middle of the mouth. The four lines, which represent the hairline, brow line, nose line and chin line, split the face into equal thirds from the hairline. The position of the chin will be this same distance, down from the nose line. Take the measurement from the brow line to the base of the nose line. Mark off the base of the nose line by bringing a horizontal line over from the bottom of the inner circle. ![]() The next step is to mark off the hairline by bringing a horizontal line over from the top of the inner circle. In this Loomis Method construction, the brow is marked halfway down the circle, representing the head. Mark the brow lineĭraw a horizontal line through the centre of both circles to give the brow line. Then, drop a vertical line down from the side of the outside circle to indicate the face plane. This shows us where the side of the face ends and the back of the head starts. Indicate face planeĭivide the two circles in half. Start the drawing with light lines, so you can erase the guides later. Then, inside the first circle, draw an inner circle that should be around two thirds the size of the first circle. ![]() This circle acts as a guide for the cranial mass, so make sure to draw the circle as large as you want the head to be in your drawing. Our starting point for our side profile drawing is a simple circle shape. ![]()
