The Practical Sketcher - p16.png

BACK VIEW. Continued

To advance for the back view sketch divide equally the space between the upper top line and and lower line which appears at 1 and 2 and draw slant lines in for the neck from 2 to 8 and from 1 to 7, as shown on the diagram. Then connect shoulder lines from 1 to 4 and 2 to 3. 3 and 4 are ⅛ of an inch in from the straight line. Then divide on the bottom line between the edge line and center line on both sides, half space, which makes 9 and 10 and the space between 9 and 10 is the original width of back at the waist line, which makes the proper space for belt at the waist line. This makes it ready for continuation on the next lesson.
