Quick question about workflow

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

I'm quite new to maya and i was just wondering what the workflow for face shapes is on a character so i don't lose them all when i skin it. Is there any particular order to it?

You can apply them after rigging or before. However, there is posibility of error. If that happens, you can change the deformation order as described here: https://www.forum.simplymaya.com/show...ormation+order
