More Head Stuff

Another tutorial night.  It focused on muscles that affect the lips, the mouth area and looked at the ears a bit too.

The way of defining the beginnings of a face with a 'T' shape was used by Michaelangelo (or so the man in the video tells me..), where the horizontal defines the brow (not the eye center, like I'd previously thought), and the vertical the nose.

The top of the ear in relation to the corner of the eyesocket is a good way of determining the orientation of the head.  When viewed in profile, the line that connects the top-front part of the ear (where it attaches to the head) and the eyes is at the halfway point down the head.
