here i saw the Faces on pennys legs and realised they were far to messy and overlapping. so i redid her legs a few times to see which way was best as to experiment with how different processes gave different final results. eventually i landed with one i felt happy with so it became the final one i connected to the body.
as you can see from the 3rd image, the leg was extremely messy. this was because i used sculpting on the leg to give the stich effect, but on further research i realised it did nothing but make a mess of triangles. so i chose to instead research another method for smoother mesh.
