What's the best resources to properly learn the skull? Loomis has it very simplified and I'd like to delve more into this topic

A skull. Just put it in a certain light and start drawing. Remember, once you get the big volume in a loomis style abstractization, you can apply the same concept to details, like in a 3d program when you use more flat planes to give the impression of a curving form. I'm not sure I explained right, but I hope I did.

Use a real skull or download Scott Eaton's lessons on constructing the skull and face.
Loomis's abstraction is actually wrong.

>lol just look at a reference and copy!
You need to understand what you are drawing on a structural level, otherwise you are simply copying symbols that you are seeing.

That what a taletless fag would do, imagine trying to understand it on a structural level when a talentfag would just digest it by copying.

Explains all those lines. You people never learn when to ditch crutches, and the skull still turned into a squashed australopithecine.
