An absolutely brilliant tutorial, thank you for this. Please do many more, especially showing you refining features etc towards the end. Thank you for uploading this for free for those artists who can't afford to buy, it is very kind of you and so appreciated.
Tip thank you so much for this most excellent tutorial. It is very generous for an artist and teacher of your caliber to share something as valuable as this with us!
What a wonderful tutorial. The pleasure you take in the subtle planes, bumps, and hollows of the human form is infectious and rekindles my own. Thank you so much.
I learned much watching this. I am mainly self taught but know that I would benefit from learning more about planes in a class. I was a dental assistant and studied patients faces unbeknown to them. You are the kind of teacher I would volunteer to help clean in the studio! Happy teacher, happy teacher's pet! Lol Blessings
Love your vibe and teaching..I'm not professional trained nor even schooled but enjoy sculpting and watching others do the art..Thank you for your time...!
It's easy to learn with someone like her, the kindness in the voice and the smile in the face show that she loves transmiting her knowledge. It's seen that it's not another tutorial to sell classes...Thank very much for sharing it...Congratulations from Brazil...
I’m new to sculpting. I was about to give up on it, the facial features were driving me crazy. I was at work one day and saw a link to your work and decided to watch. I’m so glad I did. You’ve inspired me to keep trying. I appreciate that you take your time and explain everything so thoroughly. You’re beautiful and it shows in your art. I spent the entire shift watching your videos. Beautiful, the best I’ve ever seen. I hope I will some day be at least half as talented. Thanks for sharing this yourself with me!
This is exactly what I have been looking for. I am hoping that you have made a video showing the removal of a sculpture from the armature- I cannot wrap my head around exactly how it is done. I will look through your channel to find it if is there- this is the first of your classes that I have watched and have subscribed. You have made my day!!!!
What an incredibly informative tutorial. Your explainations of the proportions, where to place which feature, how big each must be and the useful tips on where to add, where to remove, how to shape and what to be careful of, will forever be helpful. I will probably re-watch this tutorial several times in the future and probably have a few heads to show for it...Thank you so much Tip.
You are an incredible talented woman. Loved to see you work with your gentle and accurate hands. Thank you so much for showing us in detail how a head is build up from scratch. ❤
Thank you, Tip Toland, for this tutorial that so clearly explains how to sculpt the male head. I recommend it to my students as an opportunity to watch, again and again, the techniques they need to understand to create expressive heads.
Thanks Tip. What a great tutorial. When our son Elijah did the bust of Dean, he used those kind of techniques. Hope you can meet Elijah one of these days. Miss you!
People with such talent should have more than millions of views.I am proud of watching this because i know that this is a really educational vidéo.Thank you for showing me how to give a great use to my créativity
I have sculpted heads myself so I know how hard it is to sculpt the human form. I think you are brilliant and I am so grateful to have your lectures on RUclips the next thing is to buy your books.

Wonderful tutorial. I’m a professional illustrator, and while I’m no novice to working 3D for some ideas or projects, I haven’t really sculpted since childhood and have been recently getting more into sculpture as a hobby and extension of my drawing practice; this was a really wonderful professional-level instructional video, she’s a brilliant communicator and her use of tools is great for helping us understand. She’s great. Thanks for the upload!
