Dina's nose always disturbs me, especially when accompanied by the word "REAL" in an image. The nares are too thin, poorly defined (i.e., nothing to suggest the cartilaginous structures), too open and wide, and the columella is level with the nares (a classic mistake in Posette and Vicky). This link to a lecturer in plastic surgery (with prior formal training in engineering) is an excellent resource for an artist who needs to model the human nose, regardless of which media is being used. Just as you can't properly model the head without understanding the structure of the skull, you can't model the nose without understanding its surprisingly complex structure, a combination of soft and hard cartilage and surrounding bone structures. If I could find more plastic surgery sites this educational I'd be in heaven.
