I'm actually quite impressed! When you posted that last image of a "wrinkle", I figured you weren't going to have much depth perception in your sculpture.....I was wrong!I'm really loving the wrinkles on the left side of his face. Though they're not placed correctly, they are very deeply cut, noticeably protruding, and rounded/faded into the head like wrinkles should be.The bone structure of the head needs to be smoothed out and enlarged quite a bit, but you definitely have the right idea there, too. I'd also enlarge the nostrils quite a bit.Right now, your biggest problem area is probably the ears...And for that, I have a picture to offer you. I found it online a few months ago, and have been studying it off and on since then. It might help you a lot in learning the anatomy of the ear lobe:[attachment=29164:wallchart_l.jpg]Keep it up!Cheers,Ryan

Thanks again,Heck

i've heard the skin of an orange <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":unsure:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"unsure.gif\" /> ...... but then again for something like this i wouldn't know if it'd be best . maybe get a small amount of clay and press it down so it's flat on a suface and then roll the orange over it to see if it gives a good enough texture to use . i'm sure alot more people have better ideas but that's really the only one i've heard aside from doing it all by hand like most makers do but then they've also been doing it for years and this is just your first sculpt . good luck and can't wait to see more progress pics soon . mike, <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
