How to Draw a Head Looking Up and Down
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лис 2014
- Hello. I've been asked several times to make a video of how to draw a head in different views. For this video, I'm tackling two views in particular- a head looking up and a head looking down, and I show you some tips for how to approach those views.
The drawings are sped up 1.5x.
Tools:
Adobe Photoshop CS6
Wacom Cintiq 22HD
Camtasia Studio

I really needed this, I've been drawing my heads at a 3/4 turn every time
Ikr
This was a life saver! Kinda upset that none of my art classes covered something like this
I feel ya Tori! That's the main reason I refused to take any art classes, because it took my entire 21 years of life to find a place that supports my natural art style and doesn't try to shove a entirely new concept down my throat.
i just realised. I rarely drew along to any youtube how to draw videos at some point i just watched them and thats it. Now what happens is that after 2 years of just watching i most of the time know everything what hes talking about. :D But damn i should have been drawing along this whole time to at least have the practical part down. Starting doing that now :D
hang on maybe i just watched and not drew along because my drawing ability wasnt all that good and i wouldnt be able to catch up in the video. I dont knooww :D But great video sycra thank you.
Osjey I usually like to watch it through once, so I know what he's talking about, then try to draw it without the video (so I know what I get, and what I don't), and then draw along with it. Obviously, I pause a lot -- I'm pretty sure it's sped up anyway.
I had pretty much the exact same thing as well at some point and I still kind of do. It's good that you're starting to draw along.
haha
I've always had a problem with faces looking up. This tutorial was very helpful, actually :) always helping me improve, Sycra. You the best.
I really like these simple tutorials that are not too long and are very informational
I like this simplistic tutorial actually. It gives me something to work on right away and lets me dig into details later like more perspective stuff.
He literally answered a question I was asking someone else a few days back. THANK YOU SYCRAAA!
Thank you so much for the really simple explanation. The bit about the way the angles change was really helpful
I believe Aang can save the world

Awesome tutorial! I think I'll subscribe to this channel. This dude can draw!
WHADDUP SYCRA!
CARTOONBLOCK!!! I've been watching your tutorials for years!
Bret Schafer Thanks Bret
cartoonblock I
"Hair lines can be different. You can have them straight you could have them curved..."
Me:"They could also be NONEXISTENT!"
*Looks back at my friends with an evil smirk*
idk why but i’m gasping for air this is hilarious
ahhhhhh thank you!! this is litterally one of the only things anatomy wise i really struggle with! even if the head is slightly turned up or down it ads a ton more dimension
Your tutorials are amazing!! Thank you so much for making them!!!
Dude, you are a lifesaver!! I've NEVER been able to draw someone looking up correctly, and now POOF, I drew along and it looks awesome!! >:D
I was searching "I looked her up and down..." And I found this. Lol the title but it's actually more helpful than I expected, thx for the tips.
Super helpful. Your videos are great, thank you!
Wish you uploaded this a year or two ago. Had to learn this the hard way but man have I improved.
This video definitely helped me out, but it also made me realize that I need to crack down on my perspective skills. Most of the time I was able to just BS it since I'd been doing anime heads for a while. But of course, that isn't going to help me improve my art at all. Time to go draw a lot of boxes XD
OMG! Thank you so much for this video! I've been looking for this for ages!!! :D
thanks so much sycra! i've been waiting for this
You actually explained this very well. Thanks!!!!!!!!
Years later I'm still coming back here :)
Thanks. I appreciate the technical info but also the freedom to let the eye/gut have their say as well. I can stay in my drawing space (right brain) and feel that I'm not doing anything 'wrong'.
Awesome to see your technique!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!?!?!
I was JUST thinking about this topic the other day! I've been struggling a lot in this field. (I had such a panic attack when I saw this upload in my submissions box. XD ) Thanks for sharing this! :D
*This helped me a ton! Thank you!!*
THIS HELPS SO MUCH THANK YOU!!
i like your videos, becuz u explain with much details!! i'm begginer and i need all details haha :D
This was definitely the best tutorial I've seen so far; you made it really simple but explained why it looked the way it did. I finally understand how and why should draw it this way. Thank you for finally making me understand it so I can draw it :)
wow this helped a lot! :) thank you, Sycra!!!
I am a beginner to art and this really helped . I didn't really need to draw the squares and whatever at the start but thanks because this really helped ,might consider art more :D
Wonderful video!
Thank you! I am making an animation and this really helped!
this was so helpful thankyou! :D
Thanks! Always have trouble with this for some reason, despite being able to draw a box easily in these angles.
This was very helpful Sycra very much appreciated, however the extreme looking up angle does get me sometimes but i think this will help when applied haha
I'm gonna draw someone and lookin up fr some tutorial as I have never drawn a person's face fr years and this vedio made me feel like I can draw again will tell u how it went after completing ❤ thank u❤❤❤❤😘
Thank u alot ...u just have helped me working on my manga :3
love your video alot and alot :D
Thx a lot Sycra .Very easy to understand and good learling.
lmao mine always look derpy af
There is nothing hard in drawing. All u need is love of art , u learn through your the love of art
Excellent!
You just helped me with my english homework you get a like
yes! thats one of my absolute weaknesses!
Actually a very helpful first step. Thank you! ;o)
I did help! I still would love a more detailed tutorial.
Very helpful, thankyou. So if a neutral mouth curves upwards when the head is looking down, how would it curve if it were a "frowns" mouth. Eg. someone upset/crying with their head down?
hey can u please do one with the eyes open because that is the only reason i watched this vid is too see with the eyes open looking down or up. thanks sycra!
can you make a near and far action poses?
this helped alot!
nice tutorial
awesome.
Thank u!!! That i have found your video ..
Hi !
I like the tut, I already know to to draw a face up and down, but I've always struggle with drawing laughing mouths in those angles, Do you think that you could do a tutorial on this?
Thank you
I don't know how are you doing this ! wen i start to study something in short time after that you put video about that :D this time you made it agane :)
THANK YOU❤
thank you
could you do a tutorial for drawing the face (especially the eyes) at a 3/4 view left and right?
this is dope
just recently I was working on a 2d project which required the guide line that is shown in this video. I struggled a lot , not knowing what to do. but I figured it out on my own , I wish I had bumped into this video b4, things would have been hassle free. Btw , I noticed one correction , the eybrows of the character should be closer to his eyes while looking down. "perspective".
Thank youuu
this is good
loooooool holy shit I tried to do this today during math class LOL I need this
subscribed
very good I learnt something I think it is cool
;-):-):-);-);-)
Mouth opening/expressions next would be niceee.!
Sycra what programmes are you using for this? Also the sort of distorted background, where did you find that?
Would really appreciate a reply.
He uses photoshop and the background is a custom texture he made, it's available for free download on his website along with his custom brushes etc,
kewl
How about tilting?
What's your setup to draw digitally like that like if you were sketching with a pencil on a "yellowish" piece of paper? It's lovely!
Go to the resource section of his website: www.sycra.net/
scroll down a little, and under the Photoshop Brushes section is an area labelled "Sycra's Paper Texture," and you'll be able to click on it and download. I think he said in another video that he made the texture himself using images of paper.
Hope that helps :)
RainiDays Wow, tons of resources there! Trying to sketch something with his brushes on this texture right now, thanks :)
sycra do you think you can any more speed sketches irl?
What kind of grafic tablet do you use? Plz i want to draw but dont know which to buy. 😞
Look at the description
2:53 ???
can u do one were the head is like titled side ways and down ways?
I think what your talking about is a 3/4 view
***** maebey i didnt go to arts school yet so i dont no all the main words
Are you using a digital drawing tablet or just the mice??
I've always had hard time drawing fabric folds... I can't draw just rolled up sleeves without looking at my own clothes.
Cubebrush has a good tutorial to start on folds.
You need the one with the boxes in math anyway...
4:16 needed a timestamp.
Thanks
Fuck yes.
Who came here to draw superior looking people
Me. I trying to draw a person mad. Facing the fear of death
Drawing heads in general is a pain. I'm fine with faces...
Moar!
great tutorial, but i just came here to copy. xD
Is it just me, or does the person he's drawing look like Aang from ATLA.
who still using this in 2020
the bottom of the chin is not visible when he looks up lol
He spoke about that actually
