Step 4:
For nose, use craft knife to cut out two long nostrils leaving a slice down middle of nose and give a little shape.

For mouth, use craft knife to slice down across the mouth. Longer in the middle and shorter on sides. Use a random pattern and remove a few slices here and there to achieve this look.
Step 6:
For horns, roll two 2in balls and shape into horns. Use modeling sticks from kit to add details. Insert a 2 1/2in wooden dowel halfway to center of horn, dampen base of horn with wet brush and attach to side of skull also inserting the wooden dowel sticking out of horn into head. Press in lightly to secure horn in place.
Step 7:
Use modeling sticks from kit to add details and dimension to skull head and face.
