No faces

It bugs me to see pictures of characters with no faces, I'm not certain if it's a style choice, or the artist doesn't think they can draw faces (or they want to avoid infringement issues when using an actors features on tee shirts) ... also images with no noses, particularly when Martin, Benedict and Mark have such fabulous probosci(s).

I see it primarily in fan art, I've even seen people post pics in process, and they have the figure all lovingly drawn with all this texture, and leave the face for last! I have to draw the face and get the expression right along with everything else, I can't imagine just slotting it in last.
