Dear all,

Сказал, губы поджал, голову нагнул и выкатил исподлобья белые глаза

I find this difficult to visualise. He is letting his head drop down and forward, yes?  But continuing to look ahead, at the person  he is talking to, which means that more of the whites of his eyes show than is usually the case?

So:
He said this, pursed his lips, and sullenly bowed his head, showing the whites of his eyes.
?????

 All the best, and thanks,

Robert
