In this video I will show you 4 Tips & Tricks on how to construct a head for portrait drawings. I use these all the time and they helped me tremendously with my drawings. There are a lot of tricks I didn't know when I started talking portrait drawing seriously.
One thing which helped me incredibly was the quite famous "Loomis Method" by Andrew Loomis. I use it in my construction phase combined with other methods I discuss in this video.
