thank you, i totally see what you mean with the nose - i had a bit of a hard time shading it out of fear that then it'd become imperceptible! but maybe that's the direction i should've gone in in the first place! less fear, more action (:
and ohgod yes, i know! i didn't actually use the reference for lighting as much as face position and proportions! since there's barely any shadows at all i just kinda went with my gut on this one ahahaha. WHICH SHOWS SOB.
that link is wonderful though, i'll definitely keep it in mind for future pieces, or if i decide to edit this image ;u;
and it's even clearer to see the triangle area you mentioned for the cheek - definitely gives the face a lot more dimension, i'll try to apply properly this next time!
again, thank you so much, you've really helped! C:

No problem 
Faces are so tricky to do. It's good to have some consistencies pointed out. There's always lighting exceptions to the rule cause photographers introduce ambient light to get rid of shadows all over the place but generally it's a rule of thumb
