How come there are no high resolution scans of Loomis' books?

The commonly circulated scans are awful quality.

Just buy it.

that is a high quality scan.
the figures are low quality because they use printing technology of 80 years ago

Amazon wants $70 in customs and import fees and I can't find it locally

That is one page of a high quality scan posted by an anon here a year ago, he never finished scanning the whole thing, the commonly circulated version looks like this and looks even worse when printed out

marco bucci has a course explaining the loomis head and how to add value to it

These are all scanned much better than the OP image. They're perfectly sufficient for studying the material.

Don’t you mean asaro head or is this a different course?

It’s not really though. The course is great but the asaro head course is focused on recognising the planes of the face, the loomis head is just a simple method for constructing a head, its more a first step thirds-of-the-face thing where the course goes into much more depth about the structure and anatomy of the face. Not trying to be pedantic but they are two different things

I personally dont see the problem, why do I need to see more grain in the pencil lines exactly? It’s perfectly clear, both the drawings and the text

The drawings are fine but I like to print the books out and the low PPI makes it so blurry I have to strain my old eyes to read anything

>> No.4911089

>>4910956
Oh. Not too proud to admit when I’m wrong, didn’t realise. Why would asaro make this and call it an asaro head then? What an asshole

there's are different takes on head light planes. asaro's has a ton of smaller planes compared to others i've seen, whether that's a plus or minus is up to you.
