Yeah, that's what I was talking about. Many people just slap the nose on the face like it isn't even a necessary component for the face.
I'll try it as well but it'll be hard i think because it is so hard wired to avoid noses. I remember when i was kid and a friend showed me how to draw "hot chicks": he said just draw two tiny lines for the nostrils and nothing else - i think a lot of people learned it that way. Well time to get all Yoda about it and "unlearn what i have learned" 
It's also a biproduct of the manga mentality. I don't want to hate too much on manga, but it has led to breed some laziness in certain aspects of illustration.
