Proko, what exactly are you using as landmarks to identify the center line of front plane? I’m always off. Assuming 3/4 profile, Surface of nose? Base of nose? Center of lips? I’m off for some reason. I wonder if your students ever have that problem. In 3/4 profile, the center of the FRONT PLANE should be the vertical center of the “base of the nose along with the center of lips and between the eyes, right?

BRAND new artist here and this method is SO cool. I've been following along w a sketchbook, and while I only have faceless models at a variety of angles, there is so much depth in each quick sketch I'm blown away. Never thought I could draw a convincing perspective, but here I am! Still have lots to learn but this was a really fun way to learn something that seems really practical.

9:20 So much unintentional shade thrown at Tom Hanks 🤣
I followed along with a small sketch pad and I can’t believe how much the facial structure in my drawings has improved… Since the planes of the face are so much easier to see in this method, colouring and shading is going to be so much easier too! I haven’t drawn in a while but this has given me the burst of motivation I needed. Thank you so much!

Self-taught artist here. I've studied Loomis a bit for a while now, even adapted his technique into something I find "more natural". But I gotta say, seeing someone else (and a much better artist than me at that) apply Loomis' methods is really (even literally) eye-opening! Thanks for all these videos! :)

@@XxGarouEditsxX of course! But as Proko did here, you have to adjust your proportions and landmarks depending on the style you want. In my experience, predictably the eyes take up a huge space while leaving very little for the jaw and cheeks to the point where I could fit all the landmarks inside just the initial sketch circle.

I’m a true beginner, and never even heard of the Loomis Head before your videos. I’ve always shied away from any kind of figure drawing because I felt it was too hard, and for “true artists” with actual talent. I decided to finally work on learning the head and face for now (to keep me busy over the long winter ahead) and really appreciate the detail you’ve gone into with your videos. I’m the kind of person who needs to know all the “technical details” and “correct way” of doing things before I can begin to improvise from that. I’d love to know what the next steps are for people like me from here - practice yes, but starting with what?

Thanks for taking the time to redo these Loomis tutorials and going further in depth with them! I have a better grasp of this method, thanks to you! I've just been aimlessly drawing circles and lines, not really knowing what parts of the face I should be lining them up to. Looking forward to practicing later!
I followed you step by step on this one, and I was amazed.. i have most times had children look too old... this has given me so much insight, thank you for sharing your knowledge, I really appreciate it!!
Oh my god dude I’ve been following this series and I can almost draw a perfect circle Practice really makes perfect

HI Proko! I just loved these kind of videos! They are so cool ! I've deal with loomis method for many years but I've found so rigid and hard to follow. I just wants to thank you for this gift. Peace and love, master!
Psychologist: Stan Prokopog doesn't exist, he can't teach you the Loomis head method. Stan Prokopog: 20:51

You are so bloody gifted in communicating effectively the Loomis Method. Both you and Messer Creations are so straight forward, clear and specific. That's what we need. Many thanks 😉
If only our art teacher had us do this method. It looks much easier than what our teacher made us do. Mrs. Leon, you are my favorite art teacher so far and yet you made us do a harder method.

Hi Proko! I saw your older video months ago and I've been enjoying drawing heads using the Loomis method. Thanks for this new series, it's great to learn new tips on this method :D
How the hell does this man draw a perfect circle?!
Very very informative. So well presented. You are quite relaxed and yet you're so very good. I've watched a number of your videos - At 85, I'm still learning. Well done young man.
You know, you are a really good teacher. Thank you for helping me to improve my drawing skills.
I often have trouble adapting to different positions- nice lesson!
I've struggled getting my faces to look like very different, tried this method and it really helped thanks :))
I enjoy these realtime, drawing commentaries. The instructional videos are great, but these really bring out the person Stan more than the instructor Stan
I’ve been learning the Loomis method and got kind of stumped when I drew from a reference with an open jaw. Your last section helped a lot, thank you.
ooo new lesson series! I am gonna have to watch part one
I liked the "roast Tom Hanks' jaw and forehead" segment.
This was so helpful in approaching how to adapt the method. It was great that you explained how to systematically assess and break down the proportions and placement of different features and translate them to the loomis figure.
You are of the best in my opinion! Lessons with humor! Top-notch quality!
The part wehere you draw your son is so tender... Lovely, it melts my heart
16:38 - From the book Drawing the Heads and Hands FYI, the Loomis Method is what Alex Ross has perfected to a superheroic point.
