I have a question, why do some artists draw by starting with the eyes? Also something about the way this drawing was constructed seems very wrong, but I see a lot of artists ( not talking about mediocre artists) that do it.

Preference. Nothing is stopping you from starting with a finger and moving on from there.

At the end of the day, you draw to express something, and eyes are very expressive. They can 'anchor' the mood or feel of the picture. Also preference.

Before the construction of the head, figure or gesture though?

Again, its the artists preference to start off with the eyes. Nobody is holding a gun to your head and telling you to start off with the gesture before the eyes. Not even sure why this is a discussion to be honest.

Well if an artist is good enough placing the eyes in perspective will let them know where to place the nose or other features until they've drawn the whole body.

Seems a bit silly regardless, I don't know any good artists who use that method for anything serious.

because it's the focal point. you start with the most important part.

I have a stupid question, but it must be answered:

On #5, I see that a lot in painting tutorials, but I don't know the way of going about doing that in Photoshop (or even Sai), as I'd like to use it with my own process.

Please halp.

The methods of construction used by a lot of artists and taught to artists aren't necessary, just helpful. They are tools, and some artist have gotten to a point where they don't need to rely on those tools anymore, probably because they can visualize the construction without actually needing to put it on paper.

it's easier to imagine a face start from eyes

if you want to be accurate, you can draw a shape of head first
