We know that chin projection is a masculine trait and is one of they most important aspects of a chad side profile. But how much does it affect the frontal view?
I took a look at some celebrities with good and bad chin projections and compared it to their frontal and 3/4 view.

Cavil - very good projection, halos his already masc jaw.

Gandy - Decent projection and it sits in front of his lips. (this is my ideal)

Brad Pitt - weak projection and it sits behind his lips. One of his (very few) flaws.

Obviously I had to include Meeks - incel side profile but godly front

Notes:
- Seems like projection is noticeable from the front however only slightly. Meeks and Pitt who both have mediocre chin projections still have godly lower thirds. In this case the width and height seem to matter much more.
- 3/4 view the projection matters a lot more where we can see for Cavil and Gandy that their lower third looks more "projected" compared to the other three. It looks very masculine and robust. However, despite the other three having worse projection, their jaw still still look good which I attribute to their chin height and width.

(My) Conclusion:
- For frontal: chin height + width > projection.
- 3/4 view: chin height > chin projection + chin width
- Side profile: projection > height > width

This thread was supposed to be more of a discussion, so if you have more examples or think otherwise post below.

I never said that behind the lips = bad projection.
I clearly state that Chico has good projection but his chin is behind his lips.
alright i understand

but what matters most is height and projection

even if a bit behind it does not matter or is noticeable to normies

examples would be o pry or oj simpson

god tier chin heights and good sharp projection with mass despite a bit behind lips

Yea I see that now, I couldn't initially find a good side profile of him. But looking at this one you can see he has decent projection.

Projection and how far your chin extends go hand in hand imo, where for O'pry you can see that his projection makes up for the fact that his chin is behind his lips, same with Barett. Obv projection matters much more than where your chin sets.

so whether it sits behind the lips or not, is due to both jaw projection and chin projection? if both are good it should be ahead of the lips, if any of the 2 are bad, it will be behind?

yes
but sometimes your lips can be protruding or you can have an overbite
good projection but still sitting behind lips
most peoples dont reach lips even models
