Thank you!
The curves were a swine! The whole project was put on hold for a year as I just gave up trying to get them symetrical.
In all it took nearly two years of trial and error to get the shape close to what it should be.
When ever I found new pictures or drawings, they seemed to show discrepencies between each other, which caused a lot of frustation.
(I'm still not happy with the nose and plan to re-do it at some stage).
