Drawing Noses

By Helen South, About.com Guide

In this line drawing, you can see how the rounded shape mentioned in the previous step is suggested by use of implied line. The line from the tip of the nose lifts off gradually then re-starts at the bridge of the nose, suggesting a soft edge but not outlining it. Draw sketchy cross-contour lines to suggest the shape.
