| | Re: Head Proportion Sorry everyone,
Since this is in the Author section, attachments, and posts by non-moderators, require moderation by Rob or I...and all this stuff happened over the weekend, when my wife doesn't let me near the board <grin>

| | Re: Head Proportion I asked Ian Norbury to comment on this and he suggested that I refer you to his books "Carving Classic female Faces" & "Fundamentals of Figure Carving," he describes the proportions in much greater detail in those books than we ever could on the message board! Bob |

| | Re: Head Proportion Thanks Bob. I have one of those books that I can reference. Also, I have taken some measurements of human heads and have determined a simple formula that I will use.
Thanks again. For my purposes, that particular thread can be closed.
