I've got this 'lovely' little piece of geometry that I'm not sure how to smooth for sculpting. It's a smaller piece of a larger model, but it's the last bit I need before I take it into Mudbox. Any suggestions for smoothing, or rebuilding what geometry is there?

I'm well aware of this. I'd looked through it. It's all general tutorial sites, and I did try googling this matter. I hoped to get a suggestion or two on this very specific and small problem rather than spend hours through the sites, find nothing on this issue, and inevitably post a request for assistance anyhow, here or somewhere else.

Just add edgeloops before smoothing.

This, or use tesselation instead of turbosmooth.

My intent is to minimize the number of tris in the overall model, hence the edge atop this geometry. I had already attempted edge loops, which resulted in the loops along the top flowing along the topmost edge, creating a strange result. If it truly wouldn't matter, then I can simply smooth with tris.

Oh shit, didn't see this thread.

It's not.
