yes as i said coming along good =)

be careful with nurbs you will need the most isoparms around the mouth and eyes.

The sculpt tool i too did not like at first but you will find its all about balancing how you use it. Try a combination of push then smooth or pull then smooth. i never use push then pull or vice versa coz it makes things all whacky ;P Do you know how to resize the brush size? in case you dont simply hold down "b" then drag one way or the other to shrink or expand the size of the brush.
