    What am I missing here?

    I've been attempting Mike-the-Kiwi's facial texture, but failed to produce acceptable results. I have moved on for now and will work that challenge on a few busts where I think the learning curve will work better for me. However, I’m thinking I’ve missed some depth on this face on the left...

    Voting for yourself, really?

    Without wanting stepping on any toes here amongst the brethren, I would like to broach a subject many have not noticed. I think it's "inappropriate" to vote for oneself in the FOTM contests. The rules are posted clearly for all to see, but I still see it happening in quite a few contests...
