I am currently doing the digital tutors course on sculpting a realistic bust and have gotten to the part of the tut where you sculpt the ears. As part of the course you are instructed to create group loops for the eyes, nose, mouth and ears very early on in the tut. I have found however that I created the group loop for the ears to low on the head. Generally the top of the ears should be roughly aligned to the eye brow or top of the eye. Mine is with the bottom of the eye and just above the cheek bone. Is there a way to delete the group loops for the ears and start over or is there an easy way to move the ear up on the head without really messing up the surrounding polygons and distorting the head?
dynamesh is your new best friend.
