Hello again! I'm sculpting a female face to try and get some practice. Last character sculpt I did I jumped into the details way too early, so this one I'm trying to take slow and get as much critique as possible. Additionally, what anatomy/ specifically face sculpting tutorials are reccomended that I watch/ buy? My end goal is realism, so anything that teaches that would be super! Any tips or constructive comments are appreciated!

Its a good over view of many different principles while also referencing more tutorials and resources for specifics.
Something else ide recommend is looking at 3d scans of people. You can use this one, http://gl.ict.usc.edu/Research/DigitalEmily2/
Whats good about this is you dont have to focus on translating 2d reference images to 3d models. while that is a skill to learn, i feel when your learning the basics being able to really see it in 3d first can help you understand the forms a bit better. I want to clarify. Im not saying copy the 3d scan but instead use it as a reference point for how the lips lay on the mouth cylinder for instance.
