I've been working on this character for many hours, but just noticed there's a weird crease down her back. I've subdivided far too much to be able to just grab the edges and shrink it, does anyone know how I would fix this? I'm very new to blender, but I tried sculpting, and I can't really get rid of it without wrecking the surroundings.
As you can see in the picture, there's also some weirdness on the upper back and the butt I'd like to fix as well, but then again the character will not be naked so the butt's a nonfactor haha.

1$\begingroup$ Hello :). I'd check for internal faces (Select > All by trait > Internal faces) and double vertices (Mesh > Clean up > Merge by distance). $\endgroup$– jachym michalMay 25, 2020 at 18:56

$\begingroup$ Thanks for the response, I tried and it seems to have deleted an internal face somewhere, but no double vertices. Doesn't seem to have fixed anything $\endgroup$– Mashimaro7May 25, 2020 at 19:07

$\begingroup$ Okay :). If you're using a Mirror Modifier, make sure to enable the * merge* option. You can also share your file and I'll take a look :). $\endgroup$– jachym michalMay 25, 2020 at 19:20

1$\begingroup$ @JachymMichal your solution worked for me! The crease was internal faces leftover from an applied mirror. $\endgroup$– Chris WinglerDec 4, 2022 at 9:33

Some vertices of your mesh are going over the Y axis. Just a bit, but enough to cause a crease.
- Select your whole edge
- Scale it to 0 along the X axis (so it's flat)
- Move it precisely to the Y axis.
(This is the fast solution, you can of course move the vertices one by one.)

1$\begingroup$ Oh, well I wasn't as concernered about the center crease, more the one off to the side of it. The weird crease off to the side of the the lower back. But thanks for that, I fixed that problem too haha. $\endgroup$ May 25, 2020 at 20:17

$\begingroup$ But that wasn't the issue, imgur.com/a/tT48iKV this was the crease I was trying to fix. $\endgroup$ May 25, 2020 at 20:25

$\begingroup$ Right :). Perhaps next time be more specific about the problem. You can also post your own solution, so others can learn from it. $\endgroup$ May 25, 2020 at 20:29

$\begingroup$ Well, the crease down the middle is a spine, so I thought it'd be obvious haha, but I wasn't able to fix my issue yet... $\endgroup$ May 25, 2020 at 20:35

1$\begingroup$ What happens if you go into Sculpt Mode and use the smooth brush? Do the creases disappear? $\endgroup$– R-800May 25, 2020 at 21:30

I fixed this by ctrl+D and then smoothing it out.
