And I suspect it's related to getting the smoosh fold right. My issue remains that I'm having difficulty with the sink that affects (or not?) the front side of the dorsal. For instance, if I sync the smoosh too much I end up with a wart that sticks out the front side of the dorsal which I'm sure is wrong. Not enough and it doesn't appear to accomplish anything. Regardless, I'm getting the sink fold wrong which is adversely affecting the height, angle and shape of the dorsal.
Thanks for the help Eric. Your model looks great. Maybe some views from the front side would shed some light? My next attempt will be #4.
