creature blink animation

[system]

I’m currently sculpting a velociraptor and I plan on a close up shot of her eyes where she blinks. I plan on bring it in maya but the shape of the scales/bumps on the lids keeps breaking whenever I try it. Is there a way I could make her blink without ruining the shapes?

You’re going to have to show what “breaks” means so we have a better understanding of the actual problem.
