Description
BaisePrinsu as I promised, here is a step by step thingy showing how I draw side profilesI pulled this together in a hurry cause I really should sleep orz , so it looks ugly and kind of sucks but if there's any questions you'd like to ask (or anyone looking at this) feel free to comment below and I'll answer!
Side profiles seem to be the one angle that the most people have trouble with. Probably because we don't notice side profiles quite as much and we can't see our side profiles unless we deliberately use two mirrors.
If there's any other tutorials I can do for you, don't hesitate to ask~!

Edit: DalSifoDyas has kindly pointed out to me that my original "rules" were wrong in that I lined the top of the ear with the eye, when it should be lined up with the eyebrows, which made the eye way too high. I've tried to fix those and I think maybe I'll fix it again later. I've also noticed its a common mistake in a lot of my quick sketchies, so now we've at least managed to troubleshoot those lol xD. Sorry about that guys ><"
One thing I should note, the "rules" are to get you started. When I'm drawing side profiles, I still use these guidelines, but being a very inconsistent and lazy person "orz... the lines become "rough" estimations of where everything is. And now this sounds like excuses rambling so I shall refrain ...
Edit (take 2): Holy crow! Over 200 views in a day?? My fanart don't get nearly so much attention in one day xD I'm sort of puzzled about why that is but hopefully its because its helping some of you out there?

Woah, this actually helps a lot more than other tutorials -- though they are just as good! I don't know why, but yeah! Thank you for putting this up!

You're welcome! I'm so happy it helps you ^^
I did try and keep it as simple as possible. Since most of the learning is yours to do, some simple guidances was all that is needed I figured ~

Dude this is wrong. The upper ear lines connects to the eyebrows - not the eye. That's why your eyes look so out of place - they're to high. See - imgur.com/6JohKf1 - you didn't even draw the line with the right angle. And you are breaking your "rule" in every single example heads down below.

Ah right... sorry ><"
That would make sense I thought the eye was off, thanks for reminding me :3
Need to be more careful about not making these at 2 am on a Friday night "orz ...
