Files are very useful at this stage. Continue the
narrowing of the bridge of the nose downward. Shape out the main
lower portion of the nose, shaping around the nostrils a bit at
the sides. To define the upper part of each nostril it's almost
just a groove in the side of the nose.
Except in the center where it still connects to the lip somewhat,
the bottom edge of the nose should be cut sharply back toward
the face. The nostril area can be hollowed out slightly underneath
to create a shadow, if the structure of the wood remaining to
create the nose will support it. The sides and top of the nose
slope gently back into the face.
You may want to add some definition around the sides of each
nostril, but it looks nice to leave a gentler curve for the small
stretch of skin above the nostril, and below the eye/bridge of
the nose, that extends from our cheekbone to the center of the
nose.
