how do i get the perspective right?

[Anonymous No.4787063]

Protip: you don’t.
Any angle where the far eye is visible and “open” (as in the eyelids curve around the eyeball and don’t touch on the visible side) is extremely difficult to portray convincingly, and many eyes, asian eyes especially look very wrong in such angles, often just being holes in the slide of the face or bulging out. We don’t notice it IRL but it seems jarring on paper. If you actually look at artwork you’ll see the same three angles over and over and no one venturing outside those safe zones, or if they do, darkening the far socket and letting all detail blend together and just leaving the impression of the eye for the viewer to fill in. Even the Bargue plate doesn’t bother with the far eye.
Do yourself a favor and don’t autistically obsess over “getting it right”, literally no one gives a single solitary shit, focus on workable angles and come back to it once you can actually draw if you feel it’s something you need to master.

If you can’t figure out what that means from the post, the two plates from the book you posted and the Bargue plate, and I don’t know what to tell you.

I don't get it, don't draw a flat plane,
But the right one continue to draw a flat plane, but with details around the eye.
