Sculpting human head from sphere tips and tricks

Head sculpting exercises

Why take this course?

So you like making human heads but they tend to look a bit bad?

And you wanna reach a pro level in a few hours?

Hmmm, it is not really possible!


But what is possible is to improve your head sculpting, anatomy and forms with the exercises in this course!

Starting from skull, making a head over it, male heads, female heads and couple of  feedbacks on beginner heads you will bump up your understanding of head anatomy, shapes and forms in a matter of days, instead of months!

My name is Niko and i am a 3D character artist and teacher with over 20000 students withmy online courses of anatomy, character creation, Blender and Zbrush. I am also a youtube standup comedy/sculptor/streamer with my two youtube channels - Speedchar and Speedchar live.


In this course we will go trough the main shapes of the human head. The differences between male and female head. Skull shapes and their importance in the face constructing, sculpting and drawing.


The course is for all levels, it is done in Blender, but you can do it in Zbrush or even draw in Photoshop or Ipad.


In the beginning we will start by doing a test head to see where our starting level is. Then we will make a skull with it's main planes, followed by a more detailed skull, all starting from a sphere. Then we make a head over the skull, explaining thickness of facial features and comparing it to the skull. Then we will make series of planes of the head exercises to better understand the forms of the human head. Then few heads from another artists works and scans. Following i will explain the difference between male and female head by making a female out of a male head. Then we will do couple of female heads, and we will go to the feedback section.


The feedback is very important since it will give you the idea of the most common mistakes and how to directly fix them. There will be around 7 female and male heads, made from different beginner artists, that i will fix and make look almost decent :).


At the end i will even go back and fix some minor issues on my own heads made in the course.


The course is for everyone who wants to improve their knowledge on face and head forms and shapes. Also for those who want to know what exercises to do for fast and efficient level gathering in facial understanding.


Face sculpting or drawing is essential for all character artists, both 2D and 3D, and i see many people struggle with that for a long time, not knowing what to do. That's why i did this course. To help those in need. So if you feel like you can improve your face sculpting or drawing, you are welcome to the Head anatomy and sculpting exercises course.

I bought 2 courses from Udmey (same price different educators) and I am surprised how one turned out to be total trash, but this one is absolutely amazing I am into 5th video and I already learned so many things. I'll be buying his female anatomy after completing this course too.

About 6 months or so ago I got into digital sculpting because I saw Niko on Youtube sculpting. I had already been into 3D modeling, rigging etc. But the sculpting was quite new to me. Now I am developing my skills and this is the second course I own of Niko's. Very easy to understand, knowledgeable. The best sculpting teacher

So basically, this bald guy just tought me how to make heads. I was so weak in that area but now, even after 4 heads I felt confident enough to show it to my wife. She said its beautiful and that I am a very talented person. Just wow! Jokes aside, you might get confused at the beginning, there are more than a handful of ways to do heads and his method is one of the best to grasp. He teaches you how to get information about anatomy and what is important to remember. He is funny, talks much so you can listen to him while sculpting. If you are struggling with heads, get this course.

At the beginning of the course I was embarrassed at how bad my first head came out, but by the end I was so happy at how much I learned! Niko is my favorite teacher, he takes time, explains constantly, and is skilled himself that gives me something to strive for. Thank you!

It's easy to understand because human body drawing explains anatomy in detail. I will continue to study and practice the scoupling that I am interested in. One disappointing thing is that it is only in English, so I hope it will be translated into each country's language. I feel like I've chosen a good course.

A wonderful course by a wonderful instructor. The material is explained with humour, which makes the learning process very easy. Nico is probably one of the best (if not the best) 3D instructor, with a huge amount of knowledge and experience. Listen, memorise, repeat. Will definitely take this course a few more times, and will continue to progress in learning 3D sculpting.

I have sculpted a good amount of heads in my past, and I had a decent understanding of basic shapes and proportions, but this tutorial is next level. He explains common pitfalls, and shows you so many things that are so easy to miss. Highly recommend

It's rare to find a great artist who is also a great teacher. It's even rarer to find a great artist and teacher combined with a brilliant sense of humour. Privileged to learn from this man, thank-you Nikolay!
