Some 3ds Max/Zbrush/ 3D Coat questions

Zack-StefyRO · Feb 2014

Hey guys, I have some questions..
1. Is there any official GoZ for 3d Coat so I can directly import the models into Zbrush?
2. I'm a noob at 3ds Max, and I really want to know how to create the armor for this troll ( lord of the rings style) in 3ds Max..i've imported the base model from Zbrush using GoZ .
Thanks!!

You're going to want to define your sculpt further before adding on armour pieces, then you'll have a more accurate base to fit the armour to. Then I'd suggest planes and the shell modifier.

Also, for next time, use your image url

to embed an image.

yeah..i know..but the question is : how do I make the armor?! I don't know how, i really want to learn

That's kind of a big question, you know? The easiest way to get an answer to a question like that is to figure it out yourself.

If you want to do it in ZBrush, I could give you some hints, I suppose. The first thing you should do is take your ZSphere armature and Dynamesh it. Do some shaping on it so that it fits pretty well the shape of a naked troll. At the point where you're satisfied with how your troll body sculpt is, you can paint a mask on the body where you want the armor piece to be, go to Subtool->Extract, and use the extracted subtool as a base mesh for your armor piece.
