Toplogoy Fixing..

Look I've seen the subdiv stepdwon photo but I still don't like it I'm in a situation where I need to get from 2 to 1 without adding anymore in the object.


I need to get them both sets of two polys down to 1 some how.

Or 4-1 I guess

I like everything running smooth

Not sure what part of the edge flow you're specifically talking about. I also am not sure what the model is so I can't exactly say what I'd do for edgeflow.

Any reason you can't use a triangle or leave things as N-gons? Is this a high poly that will be SubD? If it smooths fine in SubD do you need to have this specific topology solution you're asking about?

Its for a characters foot for animation.

I can't have triangles or N-gons.

These are the parts

Triangles are not outlawed when it comes to animation. If it's a non-deforming surface then triangles are not a big deal at all. Tie some edge loops off at the heel, ankle, or toe areas. Look at other wireframes of feet and see how those are done.

Remember, a quad is just 2 triangles behind the scenes. There's nothing magically bad about triangles...
