- Got sum questions because people didn't get when it'd make sense to draw faces with the loomis method and when not - so here's a quick tutorial-ish video on that.
The Loomis method is a practical approach to drawing faces! It's a step-by-step technique for drawing creating realistic portraits. It's making drawing faces easier for artists of all levels. These are the basics of the Loomis method and they can improve your portrait drawing skills.

Omg hi mario!!!! i love your vids! you tutorials have powered my entire art journey! I really appreciate the effort you put in your videos!
@@potioneddie6631 That's actually kinda creative
Hello Mars L! Really love your video, please a full totorial of this method. PLEASE-

Anderw Loomis himself in his book "Drawing the head and hands" mention on page 36:
"Varaiety in spacing creates types
In order to create differences in type and character, we may decide not to follow the basic measurements or divisions to meticulously. By varying the proportions of the three divisions of the face, we come up with a good deal of variety in the resoults. There are thousands of possible combinations. It is fun to experiment with them."
So problem with Loomis method is not method but that most of people who use it or teach it use only most basic form of it. In his book Loomis describe many variants of this method, he describe separetly method for men, women, boy, girls and babies and for different types of heads and faces. I strongly reccomand everyone to read this book, it's avalable in digital form for free.
i think a lot of people don't read the book even youtube "teachers"
The problem with loomis is it’s too mechanical, too many steps, and too angular. A simpler, rounder method is better - something like Disney.
@@reginaldforthright805 It may seems complicated but for me it isn't, for me it is very helpful to keep correct proportions in different angles.
Thank you Mitochondria for this amazing tutorial 🙏🙏
He's the powerhouse of our cells
Yes please make a full tut on loomis method. That would be cool.
As much as a full video will help people need to go read the actual book, it covers lots of things that dont get mentioned in videos like how to use the method to draw other head shaps, women and children
Hi, i know it seems random but Repent and believe the gospel, this could be your last chance to be saved, jesus loves you and God bless you ❤️!
@@jecaparaiso5477 jesus forever
Yes and also funny like this.
Yesss
Pls make a full tutorial on this method . I would really appreciate it😀
He has
@@yeashizzo yes but watch the full video first
you mean WE !
He already did it broski
He did it
You can still use the loomies method for anime/cartoons if you move the lines. I never knew everyone was doing the same measurements every time. No wonder y’all suffer from same face syndrome. Great video Mickey!
I agree. I do the same.
sir, his name is march
Hi, i know it seems random but Repent and believe the gospel, this could be your last chance to be saved, jesus loves you and God bless you ❤️!
Apparently no one has read the book since Loomis himself explains how to shift things around once he explains the basic proportions.
Yo! Same pfp
A full loomis head tutorial would be wonderful, Marionette.
Maxwell is such a nice guy, providing us with the possibility of a full loomis head tutorial!
The funny thing is that Loomis explains this in his book as well if I remember correctly. Anyways cool video Malte and late JoJo is definitely one of the best looking manga out there for these reasons. Early JoJo not so much
True but godamn Araki's art evolution from part 7 onwards was just beautiful, either that or monthly releases actually allowing him to be able to draw like that
Araki is such a great artist II have read some of his parts in JoJo I really need to catch up but his drawings are so pretty and I think that is why I am so obsessed with drawing muscles 😂
Yeah he does explain it. Before Loomis even shows the method he shows a variety of face types. Then once he shows the method he writes how shifting the lines leads to a variety of shapes and expressions. No one reads the book apparently.
@@fofo-boi4509 yeah like why do they think every yt tutorials talk about all those books? They're really good and the vids should be supplimental
@@fofo-boi4509 it's because everyone watches digitally nowadays and every youtuber follows a portion of the loomis method. however, these youtubers leave out the important notion that you do need to adjust the guidelines accordingly
Thanks for the tips, Maximous!
Lmao
Thanks for the great video as always, Menschheitsgeschichtsschreiber! I think we would all love a full Loomis tutorial, but I'd also appreciate a video on how to do wrinkles on clothes bc I always have a stroke while doing them
What is the meaning of the long word? (Just wondering^^)
@@angillusions somewhere along the lines of "historian of humanity's history"
@@bautispidey8864 oooh okay thank you!
He has already done a tutorial about that
the book that introduces the loomis method has a chapter about skewing proportions to make different-looking faces
Yes, we need a full loomis method tutorial that'd be really great, love your videos bro.
"15 characters, one face" had me dying😂 once I realized it was true
I told myself I wouldn't invest too much time and money in drawing, that it was just going to be a fun way to relax at the end of the day... After a month of doodling, I saw myself getting better and better, I ordered more expensive supplies and now here I am bingeing this whole channel! I love your tutorials and your sense of humor, super easy to digest for this beginner. Thank you for sharing this knowledge with us! This channel is awesome and I haven't left a TH-cam comment in forever but I just had to let you know that.
How can I make this about me? I'll allow myself one sentence to not talk about me and mention the channel I'm using to talk about myself
@@nengelen Any creator loves to hear how their work affects the lives of others, that they're not creating alone into a void. I won't respond to you again, but it's poor form for you to hijack this comment to try to bring negativity. I hope you fix the sickness in your soul that causes you to lash out and bring cruelty and selfishness into a place where there was none before; perhaps it is a projection of your own malice.
Thanks for this tutorial, Maurice

@@LoafOfBreadies hell yea
HOLY SHIT THE FUNNY ROCK
I draw heavily stylized drawings so I don’t really use the Loomis method because of how it favors realism drawings more. I use the box method which can also be a great partner with the Loomis method as you can just adjust the size of the box as well! Thanks for the video DLAS! Quality and informative content as always!✨
what do you use? please im desperate
I've been trying to use it since I learned it through your video thank you MARCEL

Sir i have to thank you emphatically. I haven’t drawn in over 6 years. But due to my current circumstances I’ve had to find things to engage my brain. And because of you I’ve gotten back into art again. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much Marcus, Sometimes the loomis method doesn't loomis methods
Suppose that you were sitting down at this table. The napkins are in front of you, which napkin would you take? The one on your ‘left’? Or the one on your ‘right’? The one on your left side? Or the one on your right side? Usually you would take the one on your left side. That is ‘correct’ too. But in a larger sense on society, that is wrong. Perhaps I could even substitute ‘society’ with the ‘Universe’. The correct answer is that ‘It is determined by the one who takes his or her own napkin first.’ ...Yes? If the first one takes the napkin to their right, then there’s no choice but for others to also take the ‘right’ napkin. The same goes for the left. Everyone else will take the napkin to their left, because they have no other option. This is ‘society’... Who are the ones that determine the price of land first? There must have been someone who determined the value of money, first. The size of the rails on a train track? The magnitude of electricity? Laws and Regulations? Who was the first to determine these things? Did we all do it, because this is a Republic? Or was it Arbitrary? NO! The one who took the napkin first determined all of these things! The rules of this world are determined by that same principle of ‘right or left?’! In a Society like this table, a state of equilibrium, once one makes the first move, everyone must follow! In every era, this World has been operating by this napkin principle. And the one who ‘takes the napkin first’ must be someone who is respected by all. It’s not that anyone can fulfill this role... Those that are despotic or unworthy will be scorned. And those are the ‘losers’. In the case of this table, the ‘eldest’ or the ‘Master of the party’ will take the napkin first... Because everyone ‘respects’ those individuals.

hell yeah!! I wanted to do this for a long time!!
@@LoafOfBreadiesholy yapper of the yappinton
Not only does Andrew Loomis' book "Heads & Hands" cover what you explained here, His book "Fun With A Pencil" also shows how to draw heads using irregular circles and ovals. (Though, more in an american-cartoon style). Andrew Loomis books are great, if you can follow them.
Ty for this tutorial Margaret
Excellent tutorial as per usual, Miku!
I’m not kidding when I say your tutorials are the best I’ve seen. I stopped drawing a few months ago and it’s been really difficult to get back into what once was my greatest source of happiness. Your tuts have been so helpful at helping me get back into anatomy, proportions, perspective and all sorts of other stuff! You’re very good at making efficient, easy to follow guides and I’m always learning something new on each video I click. Idk if this is a comment you get often, but I just wanted to show some appreciation for you and your channel :)
4:52 Sanji from one piece live action as the example of an "attractive person" was a GREAT choice
Taz is very handsome
I will always appreciate more educational videos, no matter the subject, Magmar.
Thank you for the one day late birthday gift muad’dib
Thank you, Marcel for making it clear to *not* use the Loomis method for stylized characters.
The major lesson I learned from Loomis was simply that when drawing heads, you should conceive of them as 3D objects. e.g. for cartoony heads you can use an egg shape as base - but you should think of it as an egg shape, not a flat oval, with contour lines running around it (which greatly help with foreshortening, and with preventing you from misaligning features like eyes). I find it is useful to think in this way even when drawing a portrait from a reference photo.
I love all of your tutorials, Monopoly
Thanks for clarification, Marci
Yes! Loomis head method video would be really helpful. Also love the amount of effort in your videos! (especially considering you do them completely on your own. Super inspiring!).
This video was really helpful, Thank you so much macaroni
It's not that the Loomis method *is bad* ...
It's how you *apply it!*
When I was in college, we learned the loomis method and then learned how to apply it to our individual drawing style.
(It's also very useful in animation, for maintaining continuity.)
I (begrudgingly) learned it and have used it ever since.
I say "begrudgingly" because, at first, I thought it was a whole lot of extra work that I didn't need to do.
Later I found out that it was saving me time in the long run because I didn't have to keep going back and fixing my work.
Now, I use it all the time!
Always love the videos mĩťçħ I’ve been watching you’re videos for 2years now
big thanks for this video, Mug !
thx for the tutorial Mahmoud 🥰
😂😂bolboly wala mehmood😂
Thanks for the tutorial marcel
Andrew Loomis drew a variety of faces, including in his books. You are supposed to take the outline from the method and edit it to fit whatever face you want to draw.
I like you Marcel make a video about getting ideas for your manga

THANK YOU SO MUCH FATHER MATRIN, THIS SOLVED 50% OF MY PROBLEMS!!
Thaks for the tutorial, Warcel
I hope you make a video about the daily drawing training routine and how many hours I should train as a beginner ❤
I'd personally love a full tutorial vid on the Loomis method, simply because I enjoy your tutorials lol. Another great vid, Mitochondria, keep it up
Good thing this video came out in time, cause i recently started using the Loomis method and since it "works" i was close to believing it was the ultimate method
I'm still trying to draw without the loomis method but nice video, Matrick
Yes I need a video with that method
Thanks so much mac
SURE! please make a full tutorial on loomis method
"BESIDES maybe Tom cruse "
Shit had me rolling 🤣🤣
Marcel, please make a full tutorial on the Loomis method and also tell us what other methods we can try like your video on 5 methods to draw the human body
Mr.Marcel...I need tutorial about loomis method
YES!
I would love a tutorial and on how to use the loomis method and also how to measure the proportions correctly on the face, I have trouble measuring where everything is in a scaled down drawing that I begin to create.
This channel helps a lot
While I don’t use the Loomis method myself, this is useful info. Thanks.
I've been trying to get better at drawing faces from different angles and I started using the Loomis method. But when I tried to apply my stylization it always seemed to fall apart. Now I understand why. Thank you.
Honestly, the only take away I got looking at those comments is that they didn't bother reading the actual pdf and just glanced at the head tutorial strictly. He has a whole section on variety in facial anatomy, even going into detail about facial muscles and how that plays into different proportions. People always tryna bring down classical teachers no matter how life changing the technique. Ty for sharing the Loomis method with YT! It's already done wonders for my work!
also yes i'd love a tutorial on all the common methods of drawing faces, including Loomis. That way I can try each of them out with your video and see which i like best :)
Hey, a full tutorial would be great. However, I think it would also be great to show some examples of how it can be adapted to draw more stylised heads like in anime. I think the method should still work as long we change some of the proportions.
A full tutorial on the loomis method would be AMAZING.
omg god my fuy thus is my first time seeing you upload in 52 minutes
Thankyou martin
I've been getting the hang of the Loomis method, but I'm still far from mastering it. I definitely need a full tutorial. Thanks for this video!
Laughed at Tom Cruz as an example of a perfectly symmetrical face with his tooth.
I would VERY MUCH APPRECIATE a tutorial on the loomis method. If you would be so kind as to create one for this struggling artist here, I'll buy you a coffee
See this video made me pretty happy to see that I have been applying the Loomis Method correctly
Personally I'd like to see the full tutorial
As well as a tutorial for the muscle groups like you did with the arms, chest and abs.
But for the back, legs( front and back), and arms(back) kind of bringing it all together
The anatomy breakdown and tips were the most help out of any videos I've found so far. While other videos make the details overloaded with clutter.
Thanks for the great content!
It depends on how did you use Loomis method in a correct way (even anime or realistic). Just training and practice it as part of drawing exercise about Loomis method. Anyway it's very great explanation.
i do really want an in depth Loomis method video. I did a draw along in your last video and it really turned out well. I want to continue learning about it since i love the art style of mixing anime and realism together
Marcel this video has helped me more than you know
Yes...Mr.Marcel. please make the full video tutorial your versions about Andrew Loomis How To Draw Head Tutorial. Thank you Sir in advance. Hope you all have a nice day. 😃
Thanks, Mario! Your videos really help me a lot
