Frame 107
and just translate it over here just like this right so your whole eye socket will now
Frame 108
be inside over here just like over here.
Frame 109
So here's something really important to just remember when you are drawing at the skull
Frame 110
and later when we get into the muscles and drawing at the human head is that notice
Frame 111
with the bottom of this is compared to the nose area right and this is an aspect of figure
Frame 112
drawing that I'm showing you that when we get into more and more of this figure where
Frame 113
we start putting on the surface anatomy and stuff it's going to come down to ratios also
Frame 114
not only formulas but ratios just knowing where everything's supposed to be.
Frame 115
So the bottom of the eye socket we just know that it's going to be pretty much over here.
Frame 116
You could say that if you take this and divide it in half it's kind of like half way but
Frame 117
sometimes it's okay to just do it above it doesn't really matter just know that it's
Frame 118
on the half way over here.
Frame 119
So once we have this we know that the eye sockets are going to be here so how should they
Frame 120
look?
Frame 121
Well basically where this point is and this point you're just going to make a line over
Frame 122
here and you're going to make a line over here.
Frame 123
So this is going to be the beginning of your eye socket over here and this line you'll
Frame 124
use it because it's going to collide here this is a bone over here and then we want to
Frame 125
come back in this direction over here right.
Frame 126
So what we want to do is from here we first want to take a look at this and just divide
Frame 127
this in half over here this from here I divide this in half and here I'm just going to lightly
Frame 128
sketch out right we don't want to draw like symmetrical lines just sketch out over here
Frame 129
that that's what it's going to look like and that's what it's going to look like.
Frame 130
So basically from here where we have this concept over here this little nudge here remember
Frame 131
doesn't nudge over here because this this this this so basically from here you're just
Frame 132
going to make it come down over here in this direction so it kind of looks like eye
Frame 133
glasses right and then from here you can just put it down so if you looked at this you
Frame 134
could say that okay I divided this in half and did over here is where I ended up but
Frame 135
but this area here it's really much more roundish so when I do it I'm just going to make
Frame 136
it kind of roundish over here give it like it's organic feel to it.
Frame 137
So over here if I take this and divide this in half I know that I'm just going to come
Frame 138
pretty much over here and then go in this direction and this will start to give me
Frame 139
like the the eye socket over here and that's how all we need to know right so the eyeball
Frame 140
was sitting inside here so we've got these two things figured out right so if you look
Frame 141
at the formulas that I've shown you they were very simple we just need to understand
Frame 142
how to divide this section once we got this it was nothing more than measuring this translating
Frame 143
it here and then from here to here here to here then over here just go like this and
Frame 144
you've got the eye socket so once you have this basically this is going to be your
Frame 145
bone structure over here so just like we did on the the side remember we did something
Frame 146
like this so this area here this line is basically over here it needs to go just a little
Frame 147
above this like this right so notice when I'm doing this from I'm just choosing the middle
Frame 148
over here from middle over here and I'm going towards this area over here just like this
Frame 149
right and this will become the the area for your skull which we had done on the side we'll
Frame 150
look at this from the side also again to compare it so basically that's it we're pretty much
Frame 151
done with this and what this means is when this line goes we just need to come down here
Frame 152
a little bit come down here a little bit and just make the cheek area over here this is going
Frame 153
to be a cheek area right so how low should the cheek area really go well from the front we just
Frame 154
need to know that where the bottom of this is is really basically needs to come down about here
Frame 155
so where this guy is right you can come down here you can come down a little bit over here but I
Frame 156
usually will put it here because based on the human skull it's usually just about here and you just
Frame 157
make your cheek bones like this where this area is where this point is right we come this way and
Frame 158
we start turning and that's it we just go inwards back towards this point like this and then from
Frame 159
this area here see this here like in the middle of this this is the middle over here this is the
Frame 160
middle and here I'm just going to go like this over here right you don't even have to measure just
Frame 161
just do it this way right because this is actually a conform 3d form it goes like this it's going
Frame 162
to go like this where the mouth is with the teeth are okay so once you figure this out we can now
Frame 163
work on the top area and the top area is very simple as long as you know this dot here from here
Frame 164
to here this square we just look at the diagonal from here to here look at the diagonal and find
Frame 165
the center and then just divide up you got your point over here so this point needs to go here and
Frame 166
this one just needs to come back around like a circle and this will give you your
Frame 167
this ball shape for the top of the head so over here I'll do the same thing from here I'm just
Frame 168
going to find this over here and then from here I'm just going to find make sure I got the center
Frame 169
correctly done over here and then over here right so you can just compare from the other side here
Frame 170
what you're doing is making sense and that's really it you just come down in this way
Frame 171
okay so since we've done this all we have to do is figure the bottom part out which is very simple
Frame 172
and that is we need to figure out okay what angle really should the jaw be in it's very simple
Frame 173
from here to here where this is right if I had from here divided this in half divide and then
Frame 174
come back so from here I divided this in half I divided to the right divided to the left this
Frame 175
basically is the angle from where the jaw is supposed to be so usually to get this line what you
Frame 176
want to do is where this thing is here where this line is see over here we came here for this
Frame 177
definition but from here you just need to put the jaw because this should be like this and the jaw
Frame 178
should come towards this line just like this so we'll do the same thing on the other side
Frame 179
we got this over here I divide in the middle I divide to the left and I divide to the right so I
Frame 180
know that this is just going to come in this direction right so just compare it that it's going to
Frame 181
be coming that direction okay so now we need to figure out how should the jaw turn so it comes in
Frame 182
this direction for that it's very simple since from here to here we knew the middle we just need
Frame 183
to come in the middle here and that's it we're going to get the angle from here and where this
Frame 184
bottom of that t is you're just going to start to curve below this and that's it you're going to
Frame 185
get the line for the jaw and over here it's going to be the same thing I know the center I'm going to
Frame 186
divide here and I'm just going to look at this from here start to curve in come in this direction
Frame 187
and this will give me the design for the skull okay so once that's done we just need to make
Frame 188
those lines for the jawbone and that's usually typically you can just make it here where this line
Frame 189
you when you turn where this line is just come in a little bit here and just do this curve where
Frame 190
it's coming towards the center over here just like this right so here I'm just going to compare
Frame 191
a little bit and do it this way and that's really it here we were able to create the
Frame 192
front view of the skull so in the next lesson what we will do is so you should just practice this
Frame 193
lesson again just make sure you understand how we did it it was very simple right it was taking
Frame 194
this line understanding how these lines were placed after we had done this we do out this square
Frame 195
understood the eye socket placement drew out the eye socket and then from here we basically put
Frame 196
these lines down going above and then from here where we got these two points we just did the
Frame 197
circle right and for the chin we knew that over here came down here and you can just we artistic
Frame 198
about it do it this way and get the line for the jaw as I showed you right over here and that's it
Frame 199
so I'll see you in the next lesson thanks
