Guards ear

One of the first things I did with the rough model of the guards head was give him some ears. By extruding a single face of the Guard, further extruding the forward facing face of the ear but pushing it downwards instead I was able to create it.

After this i added a bevel to the inside and outside edge loops to give it a slightly more blocky look, though not as much as the more broad Captain Breadbeard, since the Guard is more fat than block in specific areas...

Above is the smoothed ear. The bevel i used gave the inside a more straighter edge though not too straight that it looked unsmoothed.
