How to Draw the Head from Extreme Angles

In this tutorial I draw the head from extreme angles, which are frequently ignored by most artists. The Loomis method is a great tool to solve the difficult angles.

Adding the vector lines to your own head makes your teaching style so much more understandable. I don't know why anyone else isn't doing this! Continue to make great tutorials that entertain! Thank you!

Now whenever I draw a portrait with the loomis method I always call it a "Loomie"

Seriously though, I'm getting a lot out of these tutorials. You are an outstanding teacher.

I don't think I will ever get to draw like you. I am a fashion artist, but have been watching your videos religiously and practising for 3 months now. I have improved much. My work looks better than before. I can draw styles of poses most of my classmates can't draw. Thank you for your free education. I appreciate it so much.

Gosh. You have no idea, how much I love you for the incredibly helpful videos! *-* I learned so much more about angles and the facial features within the last 25 minutes than in the past years.
I never had more "Aha!"-moments in 4 videos than in every "how to draw this and that" video I´ve ever watched. <3

I laughed so hard at 0:23 lol was not expecting that to be in there lol

The hardest part by far for me is getting that second oval to be in the right places. How you do it so smoothly and positionaly correct is beyond me.
Once I finally do get it, that allows the points to be lined up easily, but that second circle in the main one which is the side plane just drives me nuts. I'll keep practicing though

LOL at everyone else also terrified by 3:30. Glad I'm not the only one totally horrified by it.

I’ve been having a hard time finding tutorials that are easy to understand but this was just what I needed! Thank you :)

1:27 "This is what we have so far" and i was still sitting in front of my clean paper...😂

I think I'm almost feeling some improvements watching these, hehe

Easily one of the best videos for making the head. Foreshortening was the missing element when I was trying to draw the heads at an extreme angle, and this video helped me correct my mistake.

[atwistedweb]

omg i've been struggling so long on an art commission because the head angle was so awkward and i could find about 0 resources/references for it. but the second position in this video is like... exactly what i've been looking for. thank goodness. this is the best.

3:40 - This is the stuff nightmares are made of...

That feeling of wanting to win Loomi but being 6 years late..

Hello proko TV! I'm from Brazil and I study art design. I was looking like crazy on the net a more enlightening on how to draw a head and thank god! I found the channel. congratulations on the job!

[connordoran]

1 day of these has helped me improve more than a month studying Loomis.
Cheers Stan.

the part from 0:21 - 0:24 made me laugh so hard xD (again and again). i really like that you're not so serious and stiff as many artists are :D thanks for the tutorials, they really help :D

Nice restoration of Jesus in the intro! I love these videos. There are very few people giving as holistic advice for drawing as you do. It's a real treat and I'm so glad that someone is making art more accessible for struggling amateurs like myself
