Drawing faces shouldn’t feel like guesswork.

In this video, I use *one simple front-view grid system* to draw *two different characters* from scratch — a *male* and a *female* — so you can see how the same structure adapts to different proportions, features, and styles.

This is *Part 3* of the series, where we stop talking theory and actually **apply the grid step-by-step**.

You’ll learn:

How to place eyes, nose, mouth, and jaw accurately
How male and female faces differ using the same grid
How to adjust proportions without breaking the structure
How to manipulate face shapes with confidence (not guessing)

At the end, I review the *Face Drawing Toolkit* again so you can apply this system to your own drawings immediately.

Draw easy. Draw calm. You’ve got this.
