As a way of helping others with the skills that I have learnt over the last few weeks, and also a way of simply portraying some of my knowledge, I have created this simple tutorial showing how to draw the heads basic structure. I wanted to go into more detail with the body, but I think that it would have taken up to much time compared to its importance with the rest of my work. However, rather than illustrating the proportions of the body I have written them down as a basic guide alongside the head structure:

General rules for human anatomy:

· The neck is one quarter of the length of the head.

· The shoulders are another quarter head below the neck.

· Therefore, the chin to the shoulder line is 1/2 of one heads-length.

· The shoulder line is one and a half head lengths wide.

· The nipples are positioned one head length below the neck line.

· The length of one head is the distance from the nipples to the belly button.

· The width of the waist at the belly button is one head length wide.

· The hips are one half of a head below the belly button.

· The upper arm, starting from the shoulder to the elbow, is one and a half head lengths.

· The lower arm, from the elbow to the wrist, is one and a quarter head lengths.

· The hand is three quarters of a head long.

· From the knee to the bottom of the foot is two head lengths.

· The ankle is one quarter of a head high off the ground.

· The foot is one head length.
