A Mustache of Sorts

I have no idea what the tufts on either side of the nostrils are called. I tackled this area in 3 steps.
First up, I used the painted fabric as my reference to outline the inner and outer edges of the 'mustache'
Then, I took advantage of the areas of would-be shadow by adding dark ink in those shadowed areas.
Finally with a light silver thread, the highlighted areas get enhanced.

We'll move toward the lips next post.
