Challenge 546: The goblin's mask

On a visit to the Harry Potter film studios, my eye was caught by this barely-completed prosthetic that would turn the actor Warwick Davis into a goblin.

All that has been done so far is the ear. Without resorting to any images from the film, can you finish the job using just the face you see here?

High res is here.

You mean finish the job of creating the Griphook persona from the film (without using images from the film) or finish the job of a creating a completely new goblin not necessarily related to the film at all?

Can we at least look at the film images for inspiration?

Recently I've been watching a performance of Friedrich Murnau's 1922 "Nosferatu" with live orchestra music. Very impressive. That's why my Goblin turned into my version of the real Lord of the darkness. Forget Voldemort, or what's his name?!

Sadly no time this week but I wanted to have a go so this is a rush job! I had no idea how to tackle this so I ended up just fiddling around rather than taking a measured approach. So this is my effort as far as I got - dodgy nose and all.
