Familiarity in the basic shapes of the faces. (Patreon)

This is how I basically start to analize the facial shape of a male character. I also apply this when I am drawing with reference models, figuring out what facial shape that the model fits in.

The neck has a huge effect on the shape of the face. As you can see above, you can determine right on point if the character has a lean body or has a wide body.

In the next topic, I will share you guys how I draw and stylize "big guys" characters in my own way.
