Hello, if you have the time, could you explain how hair lines work?? specifically on men because I am struggling :-(
Well, I can give you some tips based on how I do it. Your mileage may vary.
I mainly figure out where my dudes’ hairlines are supposed to be based on the physical landmarks of the head. Here’s a generic head I drew up that highlights those parts. It’s not realistically accurate since these are TF2-ish proportions, but it does involve knowledge of actual anatomy, which isn’t as scary as it sounds.
1-3 are self-explanatory. 4 is that slight bony ridge around that little depressed area behind your forehead on the sides. 5 is the bump of the base of your skull where it meets your neck muscle.
Also, notice where things line up, since these are clues to help you lock things in place and keep facial features from floating around too much. For example, the top of the ear generally lines up with the eyeline and the bottom with the mouth. There are lots of little tricks like that.
And here’s a generic hairline based on these landmarks.
Of course, reference is also going to help you out a bunch here. The above approximation is just meant to give a basic idea of where a hairline would be. Like fingerprints, everyone’s hairline is unique. Depending on your character, you should feel free to mix it up!
These are just a few slight variations, to give you an idea of what I mean: rounded, pointy, and receding. Once I have my hairline roughed in, I pick where the hair part is (if there is one) and sketch in the hair, following the natural growth pattern of hair.
You can get nearly infinite variations! Get wacky with it! And there’s no one 100% correct way to draw a hairline (or anything else, for that matter) so don’t get too hung up on not doing it wrong. Practice until you’re comfortable, and you’ll be winging it in no time.
Learning how to construct simplified heads in the October lesson! Drawing the skull is really helping me understand the jaw shape, and that is something I’ve struggled with for years.

Ritual Lovers
Naked and exposed while the sun peaks through the widow shades.
As I wake to your joyful eyes glaring up at me, welcoming me back into the world, all of my worries are laid to rest.
Massaging me with your hands, cupping, stroking, squeezing, pulling, slapping me on your tongue.
Drooling at the taste of me and slurping your spit back up before it can go to waste, the salivation salvation. Oh baby, what a sensation!
So much care and love put into every action, every second you spend holding my deep inside, as much as you can handle until you need to come up for air.
No words, only the sounds of moaning, choking, popping, speaking in tongues. A ritual of selfless praise, even when you have fun with it. Your effort is a testimony, a gift that keeps on giving.
You're amazing💭
I love you so much
Hey, a horse.
Acrylics on canvas.
Art tutorials about “proportions” which I’ve sheared on Twitter. Mostly depend on fabulous books written by A. Loomis. I am quite influenced by his books, and I hope i will be able to find more useful methods to draw illustrations in there If you have interest in my other art tutorials, please check my WMA(World Manga Academy) page!

最近ツイッタ―に投稿した、お絵かきする時の”比率”に関する小ネタ集です。大体A.ルーミスの本を参考に、「これはイラストにも使えるかな？こっちはどうかな？」とか考えながら描いてます。 もう少しネタがまとまってきたらピクシブにもあげますねー。
Hey hey hey! 💕 🤠 I am trying to find some references/tutorials of the heads in different angles like left, right, top, from the back etc. If you can please and even if you can't thank you! Love your account.
This one was pretty highly requested and includes drawings that cover chins, jaws, necks, and heads.
Notes & Measurements
Approximately : bottom of eye to the bottom of the chin = chin to collar bone
Do not flatten the back of the head, unless your character has a dent in their head.
It’s easier to draw these angles if you draw a cross that guides the eye line and then the flat vertical ( | )line of the face.

For the back. of head, I think the most important part for a convincing drawing is paying to attention to how the neck/shoulders look from behind and then the ears!
Hope this helps!
Thanks for reading! If this post helped, please consider reblogging it or sharing it with your friends! ❤️

do you tips on how to draw profile faces and 3/4 quarter faces because thats something i struggle with since the position with the neck and faces are complicating
I not that good at giving tip so well...anyway here hope it helpful and understandable
-for profile face [why it call side face profile face isn’t profile face should be front side?]
-well the eyes shape is important and we can see the ear showing full.
for 3/4 face. to tell you the truth after try learning anatomy drawing stuff etc. the result ending to just drawing it and it looks natural [if not then find a similar reference it the easiest way]
I depend on gut feeling
-the inner eyes will be smaller and the nose isn’t in the middle of the face.
the cross line is helping a bit to guide where the face turning to.
the ear isn’t showing full anymore too!
unless you giving me your drawing I can’t tell a direct tip but if this Tip helping then it good for ya.
