The lips were the next part of the model I needed to construct. They were made by using the same techniques as the nostrils. Selecting the edges and then holding down the shift key to copy the polygon and then using the select and move tool create the top lip. The snap tool also came in handy to join the vertices's together.
This became quite tricky to use the geometry leading into the lips and not create any triangles. After a few attempts on the top lip I started on the bottom. Here I needed to add a couple of extra lines going down the chin so I had more geometry to work with.
I also had to make the bottom lip have three sections, this was necessary to make the lip fatter. Once the bottom lip was done I realised that it wasn't essential to have the geometry exactly matching up for both lips as the lips would be folded into the mouth and it wouldn't cause any pinching or problems.
The lips were practically the exact shape to my own but I would need to see them with skin on to get a better idea if they were the right size.
Overall they were hard to do but by using the guide properly I got there in the end.
The eyelids were made in the same way, but I didn't try to much with them because I hadn't created the eyeball yet and I was unsure on how much of the eye lid to have protruding. This is something I will correct later.
