Topology-Sectioning Out and Making the Ears

[Jahim Clarence]

Hey there,I’m  trying to model the ears with clean topology and im struggling with how to section out the body in general.I have gone through the whole course and I’ve been going over Quad Junctions and the 5 main loops.Nonetheless,I still find myself coming to a roadblock.Was wondering if I could get some further insight maybe?

Hey @jahaura , can I get a screenshot of where you’re at so far? It’s hard to tell what kind of advice would be helpful here without seeing where exactly the roadblock is.

Hey @jlampel,I actually fixed that problem and i feel good about it!I am having difficulty with getting dangerously close to the poly count limit though.Can I send a screenshot of that instead for advice on my topology?

[Jonathan Lampel]

Sure thing!

Poly Count is currently 6,204

Hey, looking good! The poly count is only high because of the subdiv, the limit and submission is the unsubdivided model which is only at 387.

Be careful around the side of the neck, that’s looking a little pinched in the top screenshot. Maybe it’s the angle. A possible solution is to try to even that area out using a junction to turn the loop up and around the neck. 

Keep up the good work!
