If I edit a model, if I don't touch the face, will all the animations still work?

Lets say I alter the Spies suit (from TF2) and sharpen his shoulders, his fingers, ect.

If I don't touch any vertexes on his face, will ALL the animations related to the spy work perfectly fine when the model is recompiled and added back into the game?

His face is not the only thing part of the animations.

I know but if all I edit is some changes to his shape, while keeping his skeleton intact, will everything still work?

[Whats This?v4]

why not try it out?

[Henry Townshend]

If his skeleton doesn't change, it should be fine.
