Hi,

I've got a question about using the Smoothing Modifier under Edit>Geometry. I was experimenting with it last night & found it does a great job on V4's entire body & would be useful for certain poses where her body gets kinda mangled or scrunched up.

But here's my problem, or question. How do apply it to just certain parts of her body? I tried selecting just particular parts like her back, belly area or thighs, but it kept applying it to her entire body.

That would be great if it left her face alone, but when it applies the smoothing head to toe, it changes the expression on her face, particularly around her eyes and in her eyes. I lose that special nuance in her smile, the naughty girl, mischievous look for instance that I want to keep. She goes from looking flirty to kinda glum or blank. Is there a way to mask off a certain body part or again, a way to selectively apply Smoothing Mod I don't know about?
