I have not figured how to add two photos. If I can, I will add the other after I finish this.
I just want you all to know that when you get the first layer of flesh on, manipulate it as well as you can, make the values and hues go where they belong and then using a soft brush, smooth them to follow the direction of light. When you are satisfied (for this layer), then buff to a high sheen. This will prepare the surface for the next layer. It always looks blotchy until you have multiple layers. The idea is to form the muscles correctly using color and light. It doesn’t seem to look very good, but you should be pleased with the end result. I will try the other photo and then do one touch up in another spot, then I must hurry with dinner. Be safe, be well, Diana
