Sub-D Modelling... Pinching issues!

Dave Jr

Hi guys,

I'm having a few issues with some organic modelling in which I'm reinforcing edges... I've looked on the wiki and found a great example of 4-2 topology etc and solved some earlier issues, but now I'm really stuck on this; if you could help itd be greatly appreciated. - I'm trying to CLOSE the main bust hole whilst reinforcing the hole for the zip.

- I'm working on one side at the moment, and plan on symmetry when I'm happy its no longer pinching and I've corrected the topology.

Any chance you can post your image at a place that my office wifi won't block as pornography? ;-)

Forgot all about this thread. Can you zoom in on the problem area, perhaps highlight it? I think I see the issue but I'd like to make sure, first.

Increase your mesh density in that area, and try to get "square" polys. That should help to reduce the pinching. just don't go overboard or your mesh will become difficult to manipulate.
