And at this point I'm just going to do the same thing that I was doing on the upper lip on the lower, lower lip area and on the chin; trying to refine it a little bit better. Add a little bit more definition as to where those things are. You can see now that it's kind of generic, as we've been running heat. It gets pretty generic as to what the shape of that lower lip is, we want to refine that by leaving the up; the lip itself alone and carving to the lip in that area under the lip. So by shaving here we can establish a hard edge between those two surfaces that will define the shape of the bottom lip. And we're clearly going to be done before. Now you notice that what we're going, what we're ultimately doing is we're making that chin, the bottom part of the chin stick out a little bit more than we may want to; but that's o.k. we'll come back in and remove the chin as the next part of this. Right now we're just concentrating on getting that lower lip defined more clearly. Now you can see that, that lower lip is much more accurate than it was. And the edge of the lip is clearer.
