Description
I've seen people say they can't draw people, and well I'm not too good myself, the only thing I can actually offer help on is the head which I practice a lot.
Most peoples problems come from the shape of the head and getting things in the right place (Again, I'm not a professional so this is REALLY basic >~<;; ) so I've come up with some guidelines that I myself use that I draw from scratch. These bases are the 6 main ones I use :'3
You'll notice dots on each guideline, these are all color coded to give a ROUGH idea where certain features go. I didn't make a mark for the chin, because it actually goes a small space below the mouth marking ~ c:
The important thing is to know that heads aren't round, they're more oval's being squished and you should always bare that in mind when drawing your head shape around the bases!
Depending IF people use this and IF people ask to see how to draw BASIC head shapes who are starting out on human (my style is anime btw), then I'll do a part two of this with heads drawn on it plus details.
You can copy and paste these into your art program until you get the hang of it if you wish, but I do suggest studying it and then try doing it yourself, learning is the best way to move forward, it can be hard, but that's why I did something so basic, too much to take in at once can be really difficult to understand for some people (like me! D: ) ;w;''
Enjoy! :3

I'm glad you think so (: Thinking of a part 2 for this, to show examples of drawn heads on it with tips and stuff, what do you think?
