This is for me a recursive subject. I see faces others do with professional
programs and I say to myself "it would be great to do something similar
with Wings". Then I work on a face for weeks until I discover I'm not a
good sculptor, I go angry and left it again and again.

Now I'm trying to sculpt my own face. This is what I have for the moment.

A good trick to make more realistic eyes is to illuminate with hdri (god
bless you megapov).

Sweet!

If I could see a snapshot of the Wings wires, I might be able to say more,
but I can tell you with confidence that the first thing that is harming
your realism is proportion. Everyone (and I know someone will want to
contradict me on this, but I have never, never seen an exception), when
they face straight ahead, everyone's eyes lie on the line that passes
exacty in the middle of the head --- divide the space between chin and top
of the head in half, and that's where the eyes go. Your eyes are about an
eye-height (a few cm) too high. It's gonna be hard to fix that,
unfortunately. All the features of a face sort of revolve around the eyes,
so if you move them, everything goes out of whack. I do really like the
*shape* of the eyes, though; the little droop on the bottom lid is nice.

The only other major thing I see is that the back of the skull isn't round
---- this one, there is much more variation in real life, but what you have
there is a pretty extreme example. The ideal would be a section of a sphere,
minus just a touch on the sides to make the temples. Yours moves well toward
square in one direction, and a touch small all over.

Nice work, though! Keep it up.

Tell me, Mr. Anderson, what good is a phone call when you are unable to
speak?
