We are so used to look at faces that we immediately notice if something is off, even if we can't exactly define what it is. With cartoonist and also caricature artists, they have of course a basic in anatomy, but they don't try to make it look 100% realistic. Caricatures are still recognizable because they exaggerate the features of a person. And I'm sure that our drawings are also recognizable as a head, just not a very pretty one ;).
And I think studying the features independently helps, because you get a better feel on how they are located on the head and the different planes that go with it. And then just figure out the relation between all of them and it should be fine right?
Also, I got feedback on my studies that I draw the eyes too high. They should be located around the middle of the skull. Looking at your studies, they are also located around the same height as I draw them.
Exactly, it's little tiny things like shapes that can make or break it.
