Question Fondant figures' facial details

Hey everyone! my name is Natan and I'm new here.
My girlfriend's sister really loves working with fondant and designing fondant cakes and figures (from ordinary human figures to dragons, mermaids, friendly animals & cartoons and so on...).
She had recently told me that she's having a hard time designing and working on the details on the figures' faces. Eyes, mouth, nose, overall facial expressions etc...

Can anyone please direct me to instructional videos, books, sites and/or any other sources of information regarding facial details? I would be grateful.

Thank you so much for the help!
sincerely,
Natan.

Talking Re: Fondant figures' facial details

This is wonderful.
I had to scrutinize the site until I got to the link that actually redirects you to the store, which is:


But I found it eventually... :P
I hope it's possible to make orders to my country through there.

Thank you so much for you help and attention.
If anyone has more sources regarding this subject I would be more than glad to hear about them.

Sincerely,
Natan.

I'm from Israel.

Do you think it's going to be a problem?...

It wont be a problem-- she sends you the information through your email once you've paid. Nothing physical gets mailed, so no problems!!

I have a couple of DVD's that I use too... Marcela Sanchez Sculpted Bride and Groom is a good one and the Making fun characters with gumpaste is another that I love.

www.petalcrafts.com is the Fun Characters out of gumpaste

and I got them both from
Books, DVD'S & Magazines

There are a lot of books, DVD's etc through them. I don't know if you want to order since you are in a different country but you might be able to find some if them in Israel.

WOW!!! You are far away from us! WELCOME to the forums! Feel free to ask questions of any kind... what one of us does not know, another usually is able to help out! And if you have any pictures of cakes or the figures that she makes... please post them in the photo albums! We'd love to see her work! How sweet of you to help her out by asking!
