In this lesson, we explored the structure and perspective of lips, emphasizing their three-dimensional nature. The lips sit on the denture sphere, comprised of muscle, skin, and fat. We discuss the M and W shapes for upper and lower lips, and how to show depth and plane changes. We also cover the importance of avoiding flat, stylized lips, maintaining the underlying form of the denture sphere, and how buccal fat and jowl fat can impact facial appearance.

I am not seeing what he means by "commas" for the lower lip.

Is there going to be another project and critque? I ask because the estimated number of videos is 20.

Hello, Thought I’d share a few attempts I have reference for. definitely have,” wide face syndrome”, something I need to be more mindful of and generally end up doing a lot of searching lines which makes a mess. I’ll keep plugging away, but I like this class and certainly helps in the invention department.

Mr. Hampton, thank you much for this amazing course! This course is really useful and practical for head drawing. Based on your 11-step method, I even try to draw a portrait. On the left side is the draft using your method. I still can't draw the facial features precisely in a short time, need to correct repeatedly. At least I have some confidence to go forward. Thank you again!
