Is there a way to bind two commands to the same hotkey? When you're in specific Selection Modes or Dialogues it seems practical. Also why is there no hotkey for bridge :(
Attaching just means combining as topologically non-contiguous elements. To attach them topologically you would have to weld the verts/bridge the edges.
Awaiting the colored versions to come...overall I would just make the pores a little smaller and try congregate them near the the nose...and the bridge.
You should check out the Chateau de Chenonceau, my favourite Loire Valley castle, it has these two bridge-galleries, with a similar lighting, might help you :)
