If you draw 2 lines vertically down from the inner corner of the eyes, it will roughly line up with the edges of the nose (depending on nose type).īoth eyes should be at the same height and look in the same direction. The space between the eyes is one eye width. You now have the position of the ears and you can add the distorted oval shape where they will sit at the junction of the 2 circles. It should sit a little but not too far below the nose and roughly level with the bottom of the ears.ĭraw two ovoid shapes for the eye openings – these will also help you place the eyebrows and shape the brow ridge. Now, mark out where you want the mouth to be. These lines mark where the forehead and cheekbones sit.įrom the centre intersection, draw a triangular shape for the nose which reaches down to the base of the upper circle, but remember the top point doesn’t quite join.Īt eye level there is a gap which forms the bridge of your nose and from this point the line should arch up and outwards to form the brow ridge. This gives you the nose line.ĭraw two lines vertically down from the points where the 2 circles cross. Start off by drawing two circles/ovals the upper one should be slightly larger than the lower one.ĭraw a horizontal line where they intersect to give you the lower level of the eyes and the upper level of the ears.įrom there, draw a centre line vertically down the two circles. You will see the same geometry whatever angle you view the face from As you progress you can do side views, and then, using triangles as described you can begin to draw a head from any angle required. This is for a basic front on view of a face which is the best place to start. You may prefer using a HB or B to darken lines and give you more pronounced shading. Using an H grade pencil will give you crisp lines but they aren’t so dark, that means as you add shading you will work over the line more. Using Different PencilsĪs you begin to add more definition you will need well sharpened H, HB and B pencils to add more solid lines. Allow the tip to lightly brush the paper to leave a light line that will just guide you later in the drawing. I prefer to use a HB or B with quite a rounded tip to start the initial sketch. To begin with, you want to sketch quite lightly. You will use several types at different stages.
Pencil choice is another subject of much discussion. Some people prefer putty rubbers but I personally use several kinds depending on the paper used.
#FACES TO DRAW EASY 3D CUTEBABY HOW TO#
Practice how to draw a face using the equator and longitude line method. Grab your pencil and paper and check out the tips below for some drawing exercises. It will also explain how to turn a face further and further in one or other direction, as well as how to tilt your character’s face or head up or down. This may sound complicated, but the video will make it all crystal clear. And the nose will face in whichever direction the Longitude line bends. Where the two lines cross is a very important spot because that is where the nose sits. “How to draw a face” top tip: the cross-hairs For our drawing purposes, the longitude lines always connect to both the crown of the head and the chin, and they show us whether the character is facing left or right.
The lines run vertically round the globe, passing through both the North and South Poles. On the Globe, longitude lines are the ones that show how far east or west a place is. That’s the equator line… because the Equator runs all the way round the globe at the mid-point between the North and South Poles. You know that the eyes sit approximately halfway between the chin and the crown of the head, right? Well, imagine horizontal line passing through them.
The easiest way to do this is through the use of the equator line and lines of longitude. Keeping all the features in the right positions in relation to one another
