Connecting the body parts together
For the chest, instead of just lines, we are going to use full faces. Because we have the sections already fully modeled, it can be helpful to visualize how the topology is going to react with full faces. Figure 6.37 shows what this looks like.

Again, these faces just outline the major shapes of the model, so that we can fill them in later. The filled-in model can be seen in Figure 6.38.

With that, we are almost done with the body. All that is left is to extrude the legs from the hip. All we have to do to achieve this is repeat what we did for the arms and finger:
- Extrude the mesh to each joint.
- Loop cut to get even quads.
- Then, inset the faces on the outside of the joint.
After extruding out the legs and using a shrinkwrap modifier as we did on...
