Or if youвЂ™re old-school you could conform the photo reference to the UVs in photoshop/gimp. In zbrush you could use zapplink to do the same.ДЄlternatively you could use a stencil to project the details but I personally donвЂ™t like this workflow. If youвЂ™re not sure what I am talking about here is a video that explains it well: The workflow I use is BlenderвЂ™s Quick Edit in an external app. I then project photo details on the lips.

The easy thing to do is go to google image search and type in whatever youвЂ™re looking for. Speaking of reference imagesвЂ¦ WHERE DO YOU GET GOOD REFERENCES FROM?

further enhance details through manual sculpting in blender/zbrush/вЂ¦.

enhance projected details by painting in photoshop/gimp/krita/вЂ¦.
