I still have difficulties drawing a good mouth ( real life style ) with upper lip and lower lip in 3/4 view, open and closed.
The only reference I have is the tut on polykarbon but still its difficult.

Would you people be so kind to show me how you draw a mouth , or scan in some pictures of books which explains how to draw the mouth..

thnx in advance !

it's no use trying to learn to draw individual pieces of human anatomy. you'll end up drawing badly put-together jigsaw puzzle-people.

Pointers for realistic lips:

- draw lips 3-dimenionally, because they are 3-dimensional, not flat . Maybe practice just lips for a while, close-up and think about that.

- lips have no natural outline, they're just a different type of tissue than normal skin, so when you draw or color them realistically, don't draw a hard outline.

- in 3/4 view, remember the lips curve around the face, not just sitting on a flat surface.

Ironically enough I wrote a tutorial on how to draw lips recently... you can view it here:
