Thin top layers

- See the swirls on the shoulders?
Hello,
I'm somewhat new to 3D printing. I'm using Simplify3D for slicing with my Flashforge Creator Pro 3D Printer.
I'm seeing a top layer print too thin. See attached image.
I especially see this when I use the any infill at 20% other than rectilinear.

Another idea not yet included in the link referenced above....try using the Variable Settings feature to split the settings into layers so you can have a low infill for the lower part of the body, and then increase the infill at the shoulders, etc.

Found this after, thanks! I'm going to try to increase the top layers.
