Did this up for a buddy of mine who told me he's struggling with drawing heads at odd angles. Since I've been doing a lot of practice in that area, I thought I'd give doing a tutorial a shot!
Part 2 to follow, perhaps. I'm thinking I'll show a 3/4 rear shot for that one. A less commonly used angle, but an important one to master.
I don't claim to be an expert here, I'm just trying to show ya'll how I do things (I'm sort of re-learning as I go, in fact! 'Teaching' puts things into a different perspective). I hope it helps.
Critique of my method is encouraged if you see I'm doing something wrong and can help me out, or if you see I how could improve something, please let me know! I really appreciate any tips I can get
Same goes for all my deviations, really I want to get better! That's a big part of why I'm here.
Great tutorial, and another shiny star for you! This will defnately help me, so thank you!
I'm DEFINATELY no expert, but here's my current method built up from various tutorials and self-experience:
Instead of just drawing the profile of the muzzle, I tend to start off with a box shape (for a male) or a cylinder (for a female) just below the half-way line on the initial sphere shape. Then I go on to smooth it out and make it rounder to form the finished head. I find it tends to help get the angle more accurate, as it gives you more of a rough shape to follow.
Here's an example showing the basic shapes of a male head how I do them (I have already started to smooth out the box by turning it into more of a wedge shape, but the basic principle's still there) -> [link]

That's a pretty generic method, however I've never seen it explained so well before. Not the method I use, but it's a good help for anyone watning to know! Great work!
Guideline are for the weak! Or so I thought before I realized how useful they could be. Not bad at all, 'ere. Up tilted is a tough pose so this is quite useful. Nice job. Look forward to a part two...(I must get one of those off-brands someday...)
