Z-Brush - VDM creation - Coming out buggy, small, with little detail.

Hey all.

Trying to learn how to use VDM's following the Flipped Normal tut. I follow it too a T but when i bake or add the mesh too a brush it comes out like this? and i cant figure out quite why.

The mesh itself is confined withing the border, i have not dynameshed or Zremeshed as i dont think you can during the creation off one of these due to that braking morph targets? this is the mesh im using for reff.

It's resolution dependant (your mesh is not subdivided enough) and you probably did set the intensity too low.

The intensity is at 100 the mesh even at high resolutions it comes out the same.

seems like you might have did some steps wrong. Since the Alpha doesnt have a 3D indicator up on the corner.

try again by duplicating the standard brush> select the Plane you sculpted on> under Brush palette> click from mesh> change stroke type to drag.
