The low resolution model doesn't have enough polygons to hold any detail, so let's subdivide it once by hitting Ctrl+D. To project, let's go into the sub-tool pilot. Let's go to Project and click ProjectAll. Just takes a few seconds, and you should see that the model is now more closely shrink-wrapped to the original sculpture. Let's do that one more time, Ctrl + D, and then ProjectAll. Every time it's going to take a little bit longer because there's four times as many polygons every time we subdivide.
