| Please note that this tutorial
covers only the BARE BASICS on the
human head. Every head is different,
and the one shown here is extremely
simplified and generic. It should
still give you a good start to base
your proportions off of. This is also
not a generic anime head, more of
a cross between American comics and
realisl hence the eyes are not uber
large, nor is the chin pointing, and
nose and mouth small. I may do an
anime style head tutorial in the future,
but for now this gives you the basic
idea of how to do a general head.
First start with an oval. The oval
should be able to hold roughly one
and a half circles vertically. Split
the head into 4 equal quarters for
a frontal view.
You're going to fill in the basic
proportions of where the facial features
will go. The eyes will fall right
on the center line. There should be
one eye width between the two of them,
and a around 1/2 eyewidth to the edge
of the face. |
