Highlight: The face is systematically divided into quarters and then further subdivided to ensure accurate placement of features.
Example: These divisions create guidelines for placing eyes, nose, mouth, and other facial features with precision.
Eye Placement and Drawing
The guide details the proper placement and drawing technique for eyes.
Vocabulary: The "three-eye rule" - a technique where drawing a temporary third eye between the two actual eyes ensures proper spacing.

Vocabulary: Iris - the colored part of the eye Highlight: This step includes adding iris, eyelids, eyebrows, hair, and neck details.
Refining the Drawing

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
