Frame 113

So now we need to find out the top area over here.

---

Frame 114

So here's a very important characteristic of the human skull that you should always keep in mind that there's a flat area over here.

---

Frame 115

Basically, from here to here, if you divide this in half, this, this, this, and divide this in half.

---

Frame 116

From this point, you basically just connect, and then this just becomes a flat area over here, same exact thing.

---

Frame 117

From here to here, divide this in half, you divide again, this whole area is always going to be flat on the human's skull.

---

Frame 118

So it leaves us that we now need to start curving, and we need to understand what angle is this guy supposed to be.

---

Frame 119

So to do that, what we need to do is basically find the center of this box.

---

Frame 120

So basically, from here to here, I'm just going to look at this and say that this is going to be the center.

---

Frame 121

You can just eyeball everything here. When this is the center, from here to here, if I had a line, and divided this in half, this is where the line needs to meet.

---

Frame 122

But you can't just pull the line because there's a slight curve here, an important curve that defines your temple area.

---

Frame 123

So for that is basically, from here to here, if you divide this in half, go up, this is where it should be curving from, and you just connect the dots.

---

Frame 124

That's it. Right. So this point here, where I've connected this, the line is going to go through this, but we need to understand how to define the brow area over here.

---

Frame 125

And that's going to be very simple because we have this center point, basically, it's like this box section over here that you need to remember from here to here.

---

Frame 126

From pull the line here, pull the line here. Right. You do this line over here. It's going to go here like this.

---

Frame 127

You basically, it collides over here with this line. Basically, it's just like this.

---

Frame 128

And then this angle that from here to here that I pulled the line was following, it starts to follow this for the brow section.

---

Frame 129

And this line, from this line here, is going to start turning. Right.

---

Frame 130

So another question is, where does it turn? And basically, it's very simple. From here to here, by divide this in half and divide again, and that's it.

---

Frame 131

This just needs to come over here. And from here, you just connect the dots and you've now completed in the outer structure of the human skull.

---

Frame 132

So we look at the inside in the next lesson. But I want you to see how simply easy this was.

---

Frame 133

So if I erase this stuff here, you can see that once I have the basic idea down, like once I sketched it, I can just follow the same concept here.

---

Frame 134

I can just look, I don't even have to draw out much. I just know that over here, I'm going to get this, I'm going to get the flat line over here.

---

Frame 135

And this section over here, I divide this in half. Right, divide again, it's going to get the flat line in over here.

---

Frame 136

I'm just going to, from here to here, half, I'm going to get like this line here. For this section, this line here, this brow area here.

---

Frame 137

And basically, that's it. And this gives me a very accurate design of the outer structure of the human skull.

---

Frame 138

I mean, that's, I just think this is very fascinating and amazing.

---

Frame 139

As to what DaVinci was saying, that once you start looking at the formulas, your ability to draw realistic figures is going to increase by reaching back.

---

Frame 140

So I'll see you in the next lesson. We will, we will look at this formulas again and simplify them.
