I noticed that when you went edit mode on the pancake, it showed only a like a 100 faces. Is this because it was sculpted using different levels of subdivision instead of dynamic typology?
Wait actually I am confused. It says your pancake model has like 13,000 faces but your edit mode at 7:40 only showed a fraction of that, why? I tried to replicate this same scenario with a multiresolution modifier but couldn't.
