Im a newbie to Marvelous, Just practicing and had issues exporting from Marvelous Designer to ZBrush.

Is there a way to get all the details of sew lines into Zbrush or does it have to be done again manually in ZBrush.

I just want to get all the details as appears in MD into ZBrush. I have tried exporting with different options selected of FBX and OBJ and still dont seem to get it.

And most of the videos I found on youtube show the Artist redoing all the seams and stitches again in Zbrush.

Been busy with work and so the slow progress. Since im done with the high poly, started to Retopo using Zbrush Topology Brush - which I have used in the past to retopo things. Just wondering are there any better ways to retopo organic structures or have to do manually for best results. 
I have tried ZRemesher and does not exactly give the best result, acceptable though. But I find the edges to not have proper loops at times even after using ZRemesher guides Brush.

Low poly and unwrap done and baking. settled for 3500 poly.
Next will be texturing it in substance painter.

Looks good so far!
looking at the UV map, you should give the shells more space between them.
standard would be, 16px space between them on a 2k map

Since this is static, you can def optimize/crunch it to not be perfect quads all over btw on the main body at the very least - you'll yield much less geometry with nearly the same silhouette. Don't go too far with it, else you'd break your shading and sacrificed some silhouette..

Before you do that however, while it's still quads, use that to your advantage to get perfectly straight and snapped UV's.. Much easier with quads than with triangulated/chunky uv shells.

set padding 16 px on unwrap shells and retopo from 3700 poly to 2300 poly. Baked with no issues at all and kept the silhouette 
Thanks

Working on 2 types of textures to figure out which better suits the model, I personally like the Denim style as i find it a little rare with more story. Any suggestions or advice?
