Duane as long as you didn't lose any of the hair line you should have no problem making a lip line with sculp-all. You have to make one with an open mouth or closed, depending where you cut it off.

I had one that came back from the tannery missing his upper lip. ( about 1.5")I tucked both sides( closed mouth) and super glued the lip line to the mannikin and the lower lip. Then covered and re-built with apoxie-sculpt. Hope this helps.

The problem that you have is not really that big of problem. All that you need to do is stich a piece of black leather to the lip and tuck into jaw with lip tuck tool. If all the hair is there above the lip line. this way the mount will look natural. p.s. HOPE THIS HELPS
