The face is more than just muscles! Faces, heads, and necks are rarely static; in addition to emotions, various factors contribute to their appearance, including age, ethnicity, gender, body type, and anatomy.
In this book, we describe and teach these elements. We provide a wide range of examples and block-outs to help you understand how to incorporate this knowledge into your everyday work.

Face is an ever-
changing structure
Which makes modeling or drawing it full of challenges. Faces are rarely static and, besides emotions, other factors make them look different from one another. Factors like age, ethnicity, gender, body type and a little bit of anatomy.
Why we look
the way we do
What exactly makes a person’s face look older or more masculine? Is it the nasolabial fold? Or perhaps it could be the jawline?
In most cases, facial muscles are not the ones that define the form of one’s face. This book will help you understand the relationship between the face’s visible appearance and the anatomy beneath it.
