Wouldn't it have been easier to do this?

While I was watching you trying to figure out how to fill in that bit at 33:35 , I went ahead and did this.


Is it okay for me to leave it like this instead of adding in more geometry like you did trying to fill in that bit?


Also are spiral loops in character modeling unavoidable or is there a (albeit more time-consuming) way of preventing any spiral loops in your mesh?



Thanks!
