Oblique left + From below: Level of difficulty 5

Once you can draw this, you can improve the variation in your drawings dramatically. This angle must be practiced because it is commonly used. Make the curves of the eyes and the head parallel so that the eyes don t droop. Take care where you draw the hairline because it differs depending on the character.

Oblique right + From slightly below: Level of difficulty 4

The inclination of the eyes is difficult to get right. Make the chin and forehead parallel. Do the same with the eyebrows and eyes.

From slightly above: Level of difficulty 2

This is at an angle so it is not exactly a fuli view from above. Nevertheless the nose and mouth are drawn close to each other. Right-handers generally tend to have difficulty in drawing this position properly.

This angle often appears in interview tests at animation studio companies. How the parts on the other side of the nose-line (the cheeks, eyes, eyelids and eyebrows) are drawn is very important. It is a good indication of your drawing ability. Pay attention to the distance between the eyes and ears.
