So I wanted to ask, how do I approach foto study like wawa does? He seems to nail the EXACT proportions so precise, that he doesnt even flip his screen. How does one can do that? I feel like at least second monitor is necessary for such studies. Do I measure shit with my tablet pen like I would do in real life portrait drawing?

it's easy if you practice comparative measuring.
and value/shape abstraction.

every observable shape can be used as a 'ruler' to measure the distance between other shapes.

for example,

>the length of the triangle cast shadow on the bottom right of her nose is equal to the width of her nose
>the triangle shadow shape on the right of her jaw is roughly equal to the cast shadow triangle on her neck

if you practice making these observations, you'll always have obscenely accurate observational paintings forever.

the line drawing in the beginning is the hardest and longest part using this technique.

you don't learn anything using this process but you get a pretty looking picture every time.
