Especially if you have the area under the fold carved correctly. Fred Zavadil did an article for our upcoming issue where he showed how to make sure the area under your fold compliments the fold.

For example, around a person's knee. If you have a bent knee, you should show several deep wrinkles. But if your knee is straight, there should only be a few loose folds.
