Drybrushing around the lips and ears can make them more stand out.
Good luck!

Did you use "flesh" enamel as a base coat? If so, try using light sand instead - that way, faces (and hands - don't forget them!) turn out less pink & ruddy.

Other than that, a good first attempt - especially in that scale. The expressions are quite lifelike.

Well, basecoat is done with valleyo 70815 basic skintone acrilic color, after that WN oils. Still trying to find best method of painting with oils.
