How do I recreate those sharp cuts in the faceplate in blender( the black areas)

Just bevel the creased lines and inset/extrude them down.

It didn’t work

Yeah, no surprise, your model lacks the geometry for something like that. I suggest you start your model by sculpting it and then retopologizing it. There’s no other way if you ask me. Other methods wouldn’t be so effective or time saving as the one I mentioned. There’s a tutorial on blender cookie about it, here you go the link.
