First time refining something so much. I like how much it improved the sculpture. Do I have any big mistakes?

Looking good! Maybe just pay attention to the proportions of the bottom of the nose compared to the brow ridge. It might be the photos but it feels a little off. I might also try to focus on how the transitions like the crease around the nostrils moves from an abrupt angle to a soft transition as you move up and around the nostril. Keep it up you're doing great!

It took a long time to give as much volume to the areas around the lips to avoid flatness. I had problems with the corner of the mouth. Redid them a few times. It looks like a smile from the side, but normal from the front. I can't figure it out. How can I do it better? Also are there any big mistakes?

Hey it's looking good. it does look like the secondary forms are too blocky. Try smoothing out the transitions between forms. Also pay close attention to your references from the front, side, above and below angles. Keep it up! you're doing great!

I think it went better this time. The bigger scale and the previous tries made it slightly easier. I'm struggling with the area around the eye the most and the planes of the forehead. Any tips for it? Are the mistakes still flagrant?

It is looking good! Yes the area around the eye is tricky for sure. You might consider taking some time to clean up the transitions between forms and soften things (like the planes of the forehead) I think if you devoted a few more hours to this one those issues would start to resolve. Be sure to check your reference from above and below as well as your sculpture for a better idea of the forms.

I struggled with symmetry a lot. There was a lot of "left isn't equal to the right", going back and forth between different angles to see my mistakes. I thought it would be step by step adding until it was done, but as I noticed from your video, I takes a lot of constant checking. How did I do? Any big mistakes I should have noticed? Is the mouth big enough?

Looking good. There are some structural issues as well as some proportion issues. It might help to rewatch the video on the simplified skull and compare it with that. But It's a good effort and practice makes improvement so keep it up! I look forward to seeing more!

Hi Andrew. Here is my first nose study, I followed your video and tried to use my nose as a reference in a mirror. Thanks.

Looking good! consider using a tool or your finger and going over the surface from different directions. Creating a subtle surface takes time and practice so keep up the sculpting! great job!

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.

Dear Andrew I have used both the plaster model and what you taught me to make the eyes.

Dear Andrew To make the nose, I chose to use a plaster model. But as It is clear that the tip of the nose is different from the original model. Should this be considered a problem? Thanks

Coming along! I don't see much of an issue but I would try sculpting using yourself or someone else's nose as a reference to try to capture a more realistic version of the facial features. Keep going! it's great to see all of the work you've been doing.

Looking good! really fun exaggerations. reminds me of a caricature sculpture. If you're going for realism you might try to make the forms and transitions a little more soft and subtle. But for a caricature this could be great. keep it up!

Looking good so far! consider bringing it forward more (by checking the shape of the ear from the front view and building out the highpoint) right now it looks a little too flat. Keep it up!
