I think that you need to focus first in the form and then in the detalle. Even though you want to just express it in lines, you need to think in the volume of the head and simplifiying it with forms. For this i would recomend first studing how to draw a box that looks and feels right, then rotating. After this you have to study how to construct the face features and the size and position between then so you can put it all together. After a lot of practice you will be able to stylize it.

neck. trying to draw a simple anime neck but it looks awkward I’ve been trying to sketch anime neck poses but the neck always looks like it is to long. It doesnt really connect the head and body. I think my anatomy and construction need work. using airbrush in photoshop, what should i focus on?

box study makes sense, though idk if the neck reads long because of form. looks more like it starts too high to me. maybe drop where it meets the jaw a bit and let the trap line run out to the shoulder so the head sits on top instead of floating
