Skin Deformation, Almost There

I tried positioning the Right Thigh up high and away from the rest of the dog. I then connected it to the Right Lower and then the Abdomen. It worked out mostly alright, however the geometry is a bit bumpy and wonky (see picture below) after being stretched and then compressed. This will probably require some smoothing to repair. I guess since the smoothing issue is coming up frequently now, I'll have to figure out how best to approach that.

*EDIT* It occurred to me that this was created with each vertex's change in position smoothed only by its immediate neighbors movement. It may help to add an extra level of 'neighbor awareness', looking at immediate neighbors and the neighbors of those neighbors as well. I'll have to give that a try and see what happens.
