So... yeh. You've all probably heard the.... daspletosaurus news. (These news > www.livescience.com/58474-new-… )
In my opinion, there paper does not really explain why tyrannosaurids "didn't have lips". It mostly focuses on the question of: "Did tyrannosaurids have sensitive scales on their snouts, or just beaks? And why? (based on the new discovery)"
I believe that both scales and bare skin are possible (on the snout) , but i just made this because.. you can never have enough lipped rexes! (also because i wanted to make a tyrannosaurid with scaly lips since every single rex reconstruction i've made has smooth, bare lips... and also to add some armor xD) ewwww scaly lips and armor
Since we don't have enough evidence to prove that they didn't have lips, i'm free to speculate, and so are you!
Remember, this is my opinion, but there's a 50% chance that i'm wrong. So, please, don't complain about the lips or whatever. I know that both theories could be correct, but i will always reconstruct tyrannosaurids with lips unless we find solid evidence that they didn't have them.
The paper said that they were lipless, but I personally Don't buy it.
Only time will tell....

You know, I now think that Carr did exagerate on his claim about "no roomfor lips". I mean: growth is all about cell division and even if room for lips was an issue, we still have the gums
