DESCRIPTION:
You are kidding, Right? This has to be the worst book on drawing that i have ever encountered. The author needs to study her book and correct the proportions in her illustrations. My advise to you, dear readers: RUN!
Considering that an average man is eight heads tall…•A young adult can be seven to seven and half heads tall•A teenager can be six to seven heads tall.•A young child can be five to six and half head tall.•A toddler can be four to five heads tall.Notice how the head measurements adjust according to their age. A disproportionate body will mislead the portrayed perspective of your subject. A person that is eight-heads tall effectively portrays an average adult, but it is most unlikely the case when portraying a pre-teen. In this way, the traditional method in laying out the proper proportion of the body can be initiated.The traditional method of approximating the body proportion of a subject is by using its head’s size.The height of an average man is approximately eight to ten head’s size tall, while a women’s height is about seven to nine head’s size. Or worse, the subject might look distorted and deformed.Knowing the proper length for your subject (the person or character you are drawing) can be easily achieved by drawing the head first. The measurements can change depending on the body type you prefer to portray, such as a long-legged subject would obviously have legs longer than four heads, or perhaps a shorter upper body to give his or her lower extremities more length.
