like an edge blend, something, to make lip matzone edges blend 'naturally looking' with face matzone?

thanks. :)

would be more fun than painting subpixels?

 

a nebulous thought, if like, the unwrapped uv could be saved as an obj, a very flat obj, then, do all the procedural stuff on the flattened obj, then export as a png to layer on top of the texture template, then everything would be in the right places, that's the baking thing?

Not that I'm aware. A lip mask works well tho (image).

I think the Cat in the Hat might know a lot about that. I'm pretty sure this has been covered once and maybe BB even weighed in with a solution - which is probably a detailed treatment of what Laurie mentioned. Good luck searching.

Yep, this has been asked several times through the years.

There's no way to do it without a mask, per BB. But, the mask is an easy and effective solution.

What you're asking for is a mask; it's probably possible to produce one using procedurals, but it is much quicker to use an image.
