The tools I used were a HB2 pencil, free hand horizontal/vertical pencil measurements (on paper and for my reference), and a relative scale with the front of the face as the reference point.
Process overview:
blar! I'll make this readable when I get back from work! ya thanksgiving black friday!
I started with a line from; the forehead to brow, to the bottom of the nose, and down to the chin.
I then drew an angled line representing the nose and another for the brow line.
hair line and strand that stretches from the top of the head to the shoulder to isolate the face/neck.
then the cheek "Y" to find the plane of the face. connecting the left arm of the Y to the edge of the brow, and extending the foot of the Y to the chin.
Did a little more brow/nose work blocking in the nose and connecting it to the outside brow. Then found the top of the eyelid for my photo ref and then the bottom and traced them across.
you can see I did a lot of griding. I tried just drawing angles but it looked wrong so i stick to finding the estimated distance with straightish horizontals and verticals given my reference scale than used the negative space of a triangle to find the curve. Such as I did on the forehead. You can see I grid it off and then find the triangle in relation to the straight lines to get my curve.
after I had the eyes I traced in a sort of "S" shape from where the ear should be to the bottom of the chin to get the shaded jaw area.
I went back and forth between the hair proportions and the neck shading.
Then I moved onto getting the arm in place, the finding the front plane, or light facing plane of the arm. Then found a reasonable cutoff point do box out the length and shade it in a little.
The I found the deltoid's end and the area of the armpit. Then shaded that in.
Thats pretty much it, thanks for reading!
