Need help improving my female face model

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a 3D female face model, but I’ve run into a problem: my model looks noticeably older than the reference images I’m using. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, and I’d really appreciate it if someone could take a look and point out my mistakes.

If it helps, I can also send the .blend file via email so you can check it directly.

Thanks in advance for any feedback or suggestions!

There is alot of musculature you are missing. The bone structure is too strong around the jaw and not strong enough in areas like the brow. The example is stylized  and the features are enlarged while the skull is small in comparison which suggests youth. 

In Blender you can set up an image plane and place the front and side images on it then place it behind your sculpt as a guide. You can also get a cheap monitor and run a free app like DAZ 3D and zoom and orbit around a human scan for reference.
Also dont go too hi rez too quick. You will miss the structure and constrict yourself by missing the freedom of being able to experiment on the fly. If you are starting then do a whole figure, not just a part. You will learn more from 10 quick figures then one you might get stuck on.
