The transition from the nostrils to the nose was hard to figure out when the model had a slow transition between them.

Did most of this assignment quite a while back, but got massively waylaid by other stuff. Went to finish it today, then remembered it was mostly just to sort out the excessive moustache... so I decided to leave it as is and post it. Move onto the next assignment... for the mouth - where moustache will attack again.

Nicely done! this is exactly what I like to see when it comes to these facial feature studies. Keep it up.

Here is my nose, along with some additional anatomy! I guess I got carried away and could not just do the nose. I felt like I needed some more context (lips, mouth, forehead, cheeks) to be able to capture the features. This is still a work-in-progress. I am hoping to get some good critiques to help me improve this exercise.

Thanks for the compliment, Andrew. But how about some tough, hard, criticism! You don't have to be so nice!! Nothing like telling me all the places I screwed up to get me back at it to make improvements. One thing I did to have a bit more freedom to make changes without ruining what I had already done was to scan the clay model using the Trnio Plus app and then bring the scan into a 3D modeling program (zBrush) to do some digital work. This also let me sculpt symmetrically, using the mirror feature of the software. Here are a few views of the digital model.
