What should I do if when Control+J join the legs to the body ruins my shape keys? I know it seemed like in the vid at that point you were concerned it wouldn't work. Thanks Kent!!! I love this tutorial series.

    CTRL + Z is the first thing I recommend doing ;) But seriously, combining a mesh with another mesh that has shapekeys will most likely ruin the keys. So it's best to finalize your mesh before adding keys.

    I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying the course!

    Hey awesome thanks kent! yeah haha i did try control + z but it didn't fix it:( i think it was because i was in edit mode because sometimes it won't let me control z when I'm in edit mode but in object mode it works! Anyway I ended up creating new shape keys, and thanks again for the reply!
