Hi all I thought Id show you a bust I'm working on it's just a superman head. If you can tell I used Chris reeve and alex ross' and Jim Lee's superman as reference. I'm sorry for the poor image quality I took the pics with my phone. I'm 75% done just have to do some tweeking and size ajusting then detail work and it will be ready for molding.

Looks great so far.
IMO you need to fix his eyebrows, you need to add more depth to them (right now his eyes are more pronounced than his eyebrows which is not prominent with most human beings apart from people with gigantism), right now his forhead is too far in.
So put his his eyes more into his skull and put his upper eyelid over his lower eleyed, and you'll be ready for molding.
 
I already beat ya to it lol his eyes forhead and ears were bothering me and you said what I was thinking thanks for the constructive crits I love having other people give me their info because it is usually what im thinking
 
It's looking really good, but I feel that his cheecks are a little too sunken in. Ironically, he looks kinda like Nic Cage. Just my opinion; widen the jaw to give him a slightly stronger, healthier and more youthful face.
 
here are some of the reference pics I used

Yeah, I think you need to beef up the jaw/skull joint. The face on your bust begins to slim down right below the cheecks, but all these iterations of Superman has the face slimming down only at mouth level.
 
Much better now with the wider jaw! He looks more powerful and healthy. I really can't wait to see more of your progress!
 
great sculpt so far - Im not a huge fan of the chris reeve look however which seems to be wht you have gone for - the nose especially always freaked me out from when I was a kid
