Let's do a quick overview of the head in side view, using basically the same measurements that we've

used previously.

But we're going to turn things to the side. And the way we really want to start this, is instead of now

having a circle for our cranium, we want to have an ovular shape for the cranium, because the head is more

ovular from a side view.

Right.

And then we want to put our center line down that shape, right. Then divide the ovular shape into three.

Just like we divide our cranium into three, and that will help us find our eye line.

And we can then measure the space from the eye line to the top of the head, and duplicate that sort of measurement

down, to help us find the bottom of the chin.

In this case the bottom of the jaw from side view. We can then draw a straight line down here, draw

in our chin line and then bring up this jaw line to kind of connect around the middle of the head area

with this slight arcing line.

We can then divide the space from the center line to the front of the face into three sections.

And we get a good location of where we can place the eye, which we're going to use just doing a simple V shape here.

And then using the proportions we already know, we can take the bottom of the head here.

Bottom of the cranium, oval shape and find the bottom of the nose.

Draw the nose in, and then divide the space between the nose and the bottom of the chin into three, and

find our mouth line. Mouth line tends to turn down in a side view

Can then draw in our eyebrow.

And then measure the space from the eyebrow line to the bottom of the nose line, to find our ear height, and where

we place the ear is just behind this middle line, right, just behind the middle line, at a slight angle

so instead of it being vertical, we're going to rotate the ear slightly to the right.

Well in this instance slightly to the right.

Because the ears tend to sit at a slight angle. And we'll place the ear in there, just the general guideline

of an ear.

And effectively, these are the same proportions, except in a side view. You can just add the neck down here.

To make the drawing look more normalized. And these are the portions of the side view. Key things to remember here

is that the cranium is ovular.

Or you could say elliptical from side view, that the ear is behind the centerline,

and that we divide this space into three, for the front of the face for the eye location.

Otherwise for the most part, all the measurements are pretty much the same.

And that is a basic summary of the head in side view.
