They did an ear cake recently on Ace of Cakes - went around taking pictures of everyone's ear, then copied the one they like best.
WAY over my skill level LOL

I thought of the same show when I saw the subject. Gathering pictures of ears is the best thing I can think of. If I tried this, I'm afraid to find out what my ear would look like! 
if you have them, you could start with the oval pans and then go from there...i would check out the kids toy "my potato head" and get a good look at a 3D ear when not attatched to a head. Go to the store, open the box, make a few sketches and take digital pictures. I think it would be a great place to start. I have done this with several things and the store clerks who "catch me" think its fun and a hoot. some even help me find better angles or ideas.
good luck, plaese post a picture when you are done.
I second what all the pp's wrote. Just Google 'human ear' and check out the images. If you can get to see Ace of Cakes and how they carved that one that would definitely be a bounus.
