Thank you very much! If you have any advice, tips or recommendations as well, please always feel free to share them! I want to improve fast!

I may start doing perspective practice in addition to this challenge as well, so for the time being here are 8 more faces. I'll try to draw again later today, but my head is killing me right now...

Been a few days, but I'm still trying to keep that 3 days at most rule in tact!

Comments: I've been drawing the 100 skulls in addition to the 100 faces. I currently have 16 skulls--each time I draw a set of ten skulls, I plan to go over them in ink to find ways to simplify the drawing, and hopefully better understand what I do. I've been told that tracing can sometimes be helpful when trying to study art pieces--something I've never been that great at. I guess the term for this is deconstructive drawing(?) I'm still trying to figure out how to think like an artist, and what my thinking and drawing process really is. Any tips on how to do this or improve in general would be very helpful!

Also, planning to post those ink references this weekend, Saturday afternoon the latest.

Notes:
• The head is NOT a perfect circle! There are angles where it may sometimes appear as such, however it takes more of an oval shape rather than a perfectly rounded one.
• The cheeks seem to be their own plane/polygon/side, slanting inward from the cheekbone, to the teeth, the jaw.
• Thinking of shapes and objects in 3D is still very complicated--figuring out things like center lines still proves to be very difficult--however while continuing to learn the basics, it should get easier.

In addition to these skulls, I have some other doodles I tried:
1. The first was more heads after drawing my first page of skulls.
2. The second was a drawing of a rib cage at an angle.
3. The third was a drawing of Back Muscles. Team Ironman, btw.

I'm aware these aren't the current task on the list, but I thought I'd try them anyway this early on.

Another Progress/Status Update! I didn't manage to do the reference lines this weekend, but those will have to be done at some point anyway.

Comments: Tried a very tiny bit of perspective drawing recently. I've been looking for good videos on how to understand it. I plan to learn One point, then Two then Three, etc. I believe there are up to Five Point Perspectives, however I could be wrong. Of course, just one drawing isn't enough for each, but maybe I can figure out how to add detail to each perspective in the future. Part of me is worried I might never be able to think like a professional artist--those guys always know where to put stuff...Still I can't afford to just quit.

First time trying One-point Perspective for around a half hour. I want to be good enough to make environments concept art and animations in the (probably far) future.

I just noticed I must've miscounted my drawings a while ago.

Formerly:
100 Faces - 70% Completed

It Should've Been:
100 Faces - 60% Completed***

Currently:
100 Faces - 62% Completed

Comment: Not really happy with the Chris Evans one, it looks like I got some of his features wrong.

Also, I think I'll try taking notes at the end of this Goal/Challenge to make things a little bit easier for myself.
