After organizing all my layers so neatly and tracing all the slices (top and bottom) I still can’t quite get these surfaces to come together the way I want them to… I have decided to finally abandon these beautifully organized layers and follow the route most others have discovered – tracing images of the original toy.
During this step you have to be very careful to take pictures with the least amount of distortion as possible – impossible to take a photo without at least a small amount of perspectival distortion so try focus only on the nearest parts of the toy when tracing.
**Later I moved these images with their tracing together to meet in the middle**
