Thank you Llaria.
I've seen the lips both ways, but since I will probably keep this copy, I painted them full since I like that look better. Once I get the base made, I'll take some better photos. The contrast is way off on these ones - the patterning on the light face shows too much and the patterning on the dark hair and kimono shows too little. Hard to get a good photo on a piece that has both black and white areas.
If you want to see something really interesting, check out this video.

It's a video made in 1954 of a sculptor sculpting an over life size bust of Abraham Lincon in about 20 minutes. Pretty remarkable.
