Description this gives a pretty decent idea of how to shade a head from the most common light source i use.
no matter what angle you use the upper part is shaded like a sphere
when you get to the eyes you bring them out of the shadow, even if they should be shadowed. that is unless your character is evil/mad etc.
the cheek bone prevents the rest of the face from having a simple shadow it creates a sharp line from the eye socket to the chin
the chin is shaded like a minature sphere
then nose is self explanitory
