Almost all the variations you have are fine. A few notes: > A little potato-like nose was planted on his face. The grammar here is correct. However, the combination of "potato" and "planted" would only work in a humorous book, where you're constantly joking throughout the narration. > Nose of his was as big as potato. (Doesn't sound right for my ear) Correct; you can't say it this way in English. > The nose was just like potato. You do have to use the article **a** , as you did in the next example. That carries down to the next two. > All round him were countless flies that attempted to land on his potato like nose. "All around" and "potato-like" Generally speaking, you have the right idea for variations.
