Clothing accessories in ZBrush

shinkicker

I am looking for ways of creating belts, seam lines, trouser flies etc for when character modeling in Zbrush. The cloth folds themselves, I had quite well.

Does anyone have any advice? Do most people scope out these parts in another application (max/maya/blender etc)?

A good example would be this guy and the braces / belt etc.

decided I will do these in max and then refine in zb, but if anyone still has some ideas, please do chip in.

Try some of the insert multi-mesh brushes that came with zbrush. I use the zipper brushes all the time. If you're not familiar with using curve-based brushes in zbrush, you might want to check out the zclassroom stuff on that topic first.

Look up Seam Alpha for ZBrush. Very useful thing.
