Modelled.....after is the correct idiom...
(B) modeled the face of the statue after that of his mother and the body after that of his wife
Correct

(C) modeled the face of the statue like his mother and the body like his wife
Modelled.....after is the correct idiom...

(D) made the face of the statue after his mother and the body after his wife
made...after....looks totally awkward.

(E) made the face of the statue look like his mother and the body look like his wife
face like his mother is wrong....should be made like "that" of his mother.
