Top 5 Drawing Mistakes - Proko rockys201: When it comes to faces I see all the time where people make the same mistakes over and over. Width of the noses can be too narrow and then the eyes can be far too wide and the shapes are all wrong. You have to train your brain to always think about proportions like width, length, shape, size etc.
Some people have different methods that work for them, but here's how I always draw faces: I draw the nose first and compare my drawing to the reference photo. When I'm satisfied that the nose is correct I then start to map out where the other features should be. I draw straight vertical lines between both sides of the nose so I can start to get a good idea of where the mouth and eyes correlate to the nose. It oftentimes takes trial and error to find the correct points, especially for the eyes.
An indispensable tool for me is my digital camera. Throughout my drawing process I take progress pictures and compare them to the reference photo, that way you can see mistakes clear as day. Comparing your drawing to the reference photo with just your naked eye can be deceptive, so as they say -pictures don't lie-

I've been searching so long for something that would accurately help me all round instead of just addressing one issue or discuss the issues I've mastered. I feel like this video was custom made for me. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this.

I am definitely a victim of avoiding things I-m bad at. I have several old -complete- drawings that just don-t have a face or proper hands. I usually sketched in the head and stopped there. It-s embarrassing honestly.

Lips and fingers are the banes of my existence. Granted I am new to drawing but even as a kid I hated drawing hands on my characters.
