Well, when you get through pickin' your nose, let us know what you find.

Well Blake, today , Kleenex has a realistic approach on my nose.

Jeff Phares,Nose and mouth

Frank C. russell Carving realistic Faces with power.
The latter does give insight to how the nose id laid out so one can use it while knife carving.
But my suggestion is Jeff's or even Mark Gargac's tutorial. Both of those are excellent.
Forgot to add that Jeff Phares's Nose and Mouth shows how to carve both the Native American and Caucasian nose. Then maybe follow up with his Carving eyes, which shows different shapes of eyes like wrinkled, dropy, baggy, etc.

At least I am pickin' and grinnin'!! I seriously doubt that their is gold up there....maybe coal, but that would be about it. I found a woodspirit tutorial on noses by Enlow that is pretty good. I am going to keep looking!!

Here's Enlow's tutorial on carving a Hillbilly Head--which covers carving the nose.

This is in the Wood Carving Illustrated Issue #23 - Summer 2003. In the same issue is an article Carving the Nose by Frank Russell.

Here's a tutorial on carving a face:

Mornin' Bob - wanted to thank you for posting the three websites, I'm an 'old' woodcarver who started whittling a couple of years ago. The tutorial by Harold Enlow is particularly helpful and I've bookmarked it for future reference. Thanks again, John
