FF8 Shiva update to todays art standards

Myselfsama

Hello all, I'm relatively new to this forum. This is my first post. I'm working on a updating the PS1 Final Fantasy 8 Shiva Summon/Guardian Force to something that could be used in a game today. Here are some of the WIPs so far. I'm currently in the process now of going from the high poly to low poly before i really go to town sculpting details.

QUESTION:
What is the best way to transition in the low poly from a dense poly area such as the face, to a lower poly area like the rest of the body when I cant disconnect the head from the body?

Comments, suggestions, critiques all welcome.

How do I add my images to the post rather than "Attached Thumbnails", its probably really simple but I cant find a way to do it off the interface?

Upload them to a third party image hosting service. And link them.

Thank you Needles I will look into that

Update on my low poly mesh. Crits welcome, specially on topology.
