In Koen's Post #5 for the early Zodiac, there is a clear 'S'-shaped line that was drawn to define the nose and the distal eyebrow. The later Zodiac does contain examples of a sharper style as part of a mixture with the previous facial representations - a higher percentage of dark ink usage.

The 'S'-shaped line clearly reappears in the first face of the "four figure diagrams" and it is reversed in the two images in the second row who are facing to the left. It is a technique that is quite consistent in the VMs faces.
For comparison, here is a Lauber illustration
