Take your time and draw out the basic shapes of the figure, like the eyes nose and mouth. This part lays a map out of your drawing. Here A Tip: Try to draw what he looks like more than what you're looking at. If you're drawing a guy with a strong characteristic like "Oh! That boy's got some big lips!" Draw that. Don't worry so much about the exact curve of the lips or the lips being exactly two inches wide. The things that make that persons face stand out are the things that will make your drawing LOOK like them.
