Lets make intestines (Zbrush 4r6)

Waterbear

In the near future, I want to sculpt the large and small intestines. I'm not sure how to approach it.

Could I make a brush that does it? For the large intestine, I could see that working, although I don't know how to make a brush like that.

For the small intestines, it really looks like a hot mess in there. How would you approach it?

Thanks!

You could probably just do this with ZSpheres to be honest.

Yep ZSpheres make the most sense.

I guess you could try to rough it in with splines first, max has pretty good control over splines and that would give you a good base to start out from, but really that seems a lot harder than just doing it with zshperes.

oh yeah, that's a good idea. I don't use zspheres much. Now that you mention it, it would give me a good way to position them.

You can just do a base mesh in 3ds max with splines and then adjust forms in Zbrush, if you want to

How about making a base blob shape, drawing a curve over that blob that is the intestines, tube brush, then mask off areas and inflate?
