Face loops are almost exactly the same as edge loops, but with one obvious difference: face loops are comprised of connected faces instead of edges. A pair of adjacent edge loops can be connected to form a face loop, as you can see in the following diagram:

Edge loops are a series of connected edges; face loops are formed between pairs of adjacent edge loops

As we already know, faces are the part of the mesh that the computer uses to draw the final image, so face loops are arguably more important than edge loops. One of the best ways to determine whether your model's topology is good is to highlight the face loops and see whether ...
