There are a million ways to construct the head. Try mixing and matching as many different approaches as you can, and see what works for you. There is one thing that unifies all approaches. In the end, when you finally put your lines on top, you have to have good design principles.

Rad, your master's drawing class was extremely helpful! Love your approach to the figure and structure!
Awesome tutorial. :) Can't wait to try some new approaches to drawing the head. I'm still trying to get the whole 3D effect on 2D.

This is a great post.
Thinking in 3d when drawing in 2d really makes a difference, and helps keep your characters consistent :)
dude, WTF? Libya's back is to the viewer and her head is rotated AND TILTED toward the viewer. You totally missed the tilt! Take the pose yourself and you will feel that crease line Michelangelo drew in the neck, and realize THE TILT along with the rotation is what occasions it. Good points in your text, but man, practice what you preach!
