The unmentioned genius of Packard Styling was Werner Gubitz. He started out doing renderings for LeBaron, I believe , and migrated to Packard. He was responsible for the details and styling integration that kept Packards looking like Packards. He retired just after the, war at the age of 47 (!), with results well know to us.
The barb on the hood was a detail he borrowed from Hibbard and Darrin in Paris, inverting it to muddy the provenance.
I have attached a picture, lets see if I did it correctly
