Drawing the Nose - Line Drawing

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. Sketchy cross-contour lines also hep to suggest the shape.
