I bought your book (Figure It Out - Human Proportions) and I'm finding it very helpful. What I'm struggling with is the initial shape of the head. It's proving tricky to accurately reproduce and lacks a defined width/height relationship. Most tutorials draw a circle for the top of the head and have centre lines that protrude from the circle at certain lengths. If you get that initial 'egg' shape wrong the rest of the features don't fall into place correctly. Any tips?

As an absolute beginner who was deemed hopeless at drawing in primary school and has never held a pencil in his hand since, I learned a lot from this video lesson. Videos often show what books never can, but I would definitely get these books, and I probably will. These are books every kid should try. Especially those who, like myself, were told they could never do it. Thank you for sharing your experience.

sir, how do you only have to erase once in this video. When I'm drawing I erase up to 10 times on a single line, I'm beginning to lose confidence in my drawing skill. My mom says that I'm a really good drawer but it's only because she's my mom. Should I keep practicing or stop because drawing is what I do when I'm bored or making a character for a game that I'm going to play outside.

Thank you so much for the help. I couldn't find a simple video for drawing a mans face until I came upon this. It helped a lot because before this I only knew how to draw female faces so most of my men drawings turned out to look very feminine. It was a good video and I think it could help anyone because I'm 13 and mine turned pretty good, well at least I think so. Thanks again!

I drew this a lot and thank you for you I started to draw great faces. You explain very well! Better than other artists in the world. Even if other ones draw more pretty, but you draw AND explain so other ones can learn to draw. You are amazing Mr. Hart!

This is perfect! Thank you so much for doing this. I've been reading books but they are SO TECHNICAL, which is a good thing, but difficult for me. I'm a show, don't tell kind of learner, and you just made my day!

Went too fast. You have talent, but I don't. So I can't draw this anyhow. I wanted some tips for drawing my brother, but. All the time I have put into my Art is a waste. No tutorials seem too help. Oh well.
