In this Blender face retopology tutorial, you’ll learn how to create clean edge flow for animation-ready character topology. We focus specifically on face retopo and essential loops such as the mouth loop, eye loop, forehead flow, and ear loop. You’ll see how to build a proper quad topology that supports natural facial deformation, blinking, speaking, and expression changes. If you want to improve your character modeling skills and understand how topology works for animation, this tutorial will guide you step by step.
Instead of modeling from scratch, we use Tripo to quickly generate a base sculpt and then focus entirely on professional retopology techniques.
