    • centerline of face, which dictates angle
  2. set up circle and draw lines of landmarks for reference
  3. block in neck
  4. fill in shapes of everything by measuring against existing references
  5. find curve of nose and positioning of eyebrows
  6. carve out angle of eye farthest away from you

  8. use triangular spaces for reference, e.g. space between nose and cheek
  9. determine proper angles
