Panel 3: Behold, the oft-mentioned "profile cheat" strikes again! Then again, a more strictly realistic angle depicting the back of his g-d head certainly wouldn't convey much emotion, would it?
Panel 4: Behold, the much more rarely seen "three-quarters angle" cheat here, as semi-meta Emp really wouldn't be able to look back at Thugboy from this angle. Artistic license ahoy!

Today’s Patreon Update:
As I did last month, I'm taking off the third week of April from
putting up new Patreon content, as I just can't keep up an every-weekday
posting schedule while struggling to make progress on Empowered vol.12. However, my vast archive of years of Patreon posts—extensive Empowered previews, vintage con sketches, work stages on covers, "damsel in distress" commissions, life drawings & much, much more—remains available for Patrons' perusal.-Adam Warren
