1、在研究我的课题的面部特征几分钟我决定最好的椭圆形状。这是,你会看到,一个长椭圆形很平的顶部和底部。我表明我的目标是真的脖子虽然学科面临的特点。
2,我画一条线指示的目力所及的。根据不同的角度,你可能不得不把顶部的耳朵眼睛的水平,但在我的画他们碰巧排队很好地配合眉毛。目力所及的大致在我们的椭圆形。这仅仅是近似的。面倾斜角度和个人的特点确定是目力所及的。它不同于从面对面。
3、现在的noseline也给出了一个粗略的耳朵的底部。
4、mouthline是相当的下巴。通常你可以告诉把面积低于鼻子在两个。我的意思是由智能使用形状。我的主题就是没有特点,很容易被分解那么方便。你未来的学科都有自己的差异。为了描绘他们成功你需要观察细致。你的判断规则。
5,现在我把脸从中间所以我可以判断每个特性的位置。注意线稍微偏离中心,因为脸是一个小远离观众。在这里我画了线的额头。正如我在前面提到的这一行也标志着耳朵的顶端。
6、我素描的特性,使用指南,仔细注意左眼(从我们的角度来看)是靠近中心线因为角度的脸。眼睛是着手一眼宽,眼睛的内层(向鼻子)符合边缘的鼻子和两只眼睛的中心大致与口的边缘。记住这是一个测量那不是万能当画脸。适应它每个脸你描绘。
7、我画发际线简单。
8日,现在我做的轮廓外的头发和耳朵。他们开始在相同的高度上眉毛但是不达到鼻子指南。不是自然尴尬吗?总是记得画脸是观察。
9、我开始添加的语调与侧面的6 b铅笔。我建立深地区第一。
10、现在我添加基调的眼睛和眉毛。
11、现在我添加中间色调的脸。
12,我继续建立音调…
13日,…直到满足我最黑暗和中间色调正确。
14,我的手指轻轻摩擦表面我直到铅笔记号都抹掉了。
15,现在用麂皮布缠绕我的食指我擦在最黑暗的区域。如果你有足够的铅笔在纸上你会看到这些区域变暗。用很重的压力,但与流体、小运动。如果需要,添加更多的语气又搓。
16、用你的腻子橡胶去除铅笔在面对那些较轻的部分。是非常温和的。过去每一部分直到它适合你。
17日,删除任何指南不包括的混合阶段。
你的脸是现在准备开发作为一个更详细的图纸或绘画。请练习不同的面孔所有形状和年龄。从椭圆和基本指导方针,然后裁剪成你的主题。画脸并不困难。毅力成就!、
原文如下：
1, After studying the facial features of my subject for several minutes I decide on the best oval shape. It is, you will see, a long oval quite flat at the top and bottom. I indicate the neck although my goal is really the features of the subjects face.
2, I draw a line indicating the eyeline. Depending on the angle you may have to place the top of the ears at the level of the eye but in my drawing they happen to line up nicely with the brow. The eyeline is roughly at the halfway point on our oval. This is only approximate. The angle the face is tilted and the individual's characteristics determine where the eyeline is. It varies from face to face.
3, Now the noseline which also gives a rough idea of the bottom of the ears.
4, The mouthline is quite a way from the chin. Conventionally you may be told to split the area below the nose in two. This is what I mean by intelligent use of shapes. My subject simply doesn't have features that can readily be broken down so conveniently. Your future subjects will all have their own differences. In order to draw or paint them successfully you will need to observe them closely. Your judgement rules.
5, Now I split the face down the middle so I can judge the position of each feature. Note the line is slightly off centre because the face is a little turned away from the viewer. Here I draw the line of the brow. As I mentioned before this line also marks the top of the ears.
6, I sketch the features carefully, using the guidelines. Note the left eye (from our perspective) is closer to the centreline because of the angle of the face. Eyes are set about one eye width apart and the inner portion of the eyes (towards the nose) are in line with the edges of the nose and the centre of each eye is roughly in line with the edges of the mouth. Remember this is a measurement that is not universal when drawing faces. Adapt it to each face you depict.
7, I draw the hairline simply.
8, Now I do the outline of the outer hair and the ears. They start at the same level as the brow but do not reach the nose guideline. Isn't nature awkward? Always remember drawing faces is about observation.
9, I begin to add tone with the side of a 6b pencil. I build up the darkest areas first.
10, Now I add tone to the eyes and brows.
11, Now I add middle tone all over the face.
12, I continue to build up the tones...
13, ...until satisfied I have the darkest and middle tones correct.
14, With my finger I lightly rub at the surface until the pencil marks are smoothed out.
15, Now with a chamois cloth wrapped around my forefinger I rub over the darkest areas. If you have enough pencil on the paper you will see these areas darken. Use quite heavy pressure but with fluid, small movements. Add more tone if necessary and rub again.
16, Use your putty rubber to remove pencil at the lighter parts of the face. Be very gentle. Go over each part until it suits you.
17, Remove any guidelines not covered by the blending stages.
Your face is now ready to develop as a more detailed drawing or painting. Please practice with different faces of all shapes and ages. Start with the oval and basic guidelines and then tailor them to your subject. Drawing faces is not difficult. Perseverance triumphs!
