That EXCEPTIONALLY easy to muck up corner of the nose

badjackrabbit

so I'm modeling my 3rd character, the second with a visible face, and I'm trying to figure out how to make the bottom corner of the nose and the nostril to connect properly to the cheek and laugh line, and i THINK I've got it, shown above, BUT....I really don't want to mess this up and find out later. can anyone tell me if this looks right?

Umm... sculpting the high poly anatomy in ZBrush is the solution. And then doing the retopo on top of it in Maya (judging from the UI, you're Maya?) should do the trick. Sub-d modeling organic stuff is kind of an old-fashioned and pretty much obsolete workflow nowadays.

@FourtyNights there are plenty of reasons why someone may want to model a character traditionally, especially in a studio context. These things don't work in absolutes.
