Not sure about it going on sale but Pixologic allows you to resell your license so you could probably find it discounted from someone selling their own copy. Personally I think ZBrush is probably the best value for the money of any 3D app I've ever owned and as mentioned, unlike Autodesk products if it ever ceases to be…
Hi I am looking for some Zbrush alphas that I can use for architecture. Patterns and emboss styles. I've tried searching the internet but keep coming across organic alphas I was doing the Video Tutorial: Project Master Techniques with Sebastien Legrain from the pixologic site. In video 3 he shows using an alpha (SYDE0114).…
Well I've been contemplating it for a bit and decided I'd start a digital sketchbook where I can show the stuff that doesn't usually get to the WAYWO thread. I appreciate feedback on every and all things and for the most part it empowers me to grow and learn. Without further ado here are a couple speed sculpts I did last…
Hey guys, So I've been following the eat3d zbrush tutorials recently and I've noticed that they use a lot of nice materials while modeling. For example something called RS_GreyExt. I've tried to find it online but it doesn't seem to be in the pixologic material library. Does anyone have this material or know what I'm…
Those sculpts are indeed very impressive. My only critique is that some of them are a bit too detailed, and some of those details are going to get a bit lost ingame. Still, you have some really great shapes and silhouettes, I'm loving those bows! @Darren Pinard I may be wrong, but I believe the matcap from those shots is…
Yes. I have my stuff docked. For example I never use the movie menu except on rare occasions. Zbrush is made to be heavily customized in terms of buttons and menus placement. Pixologic just had a live stream with some of the best zbrushers in the world and menus were only used to show novices where X or Y option was if at…
Not for long, Pixologic announced Zbrush 5 would be 64bit at the same time they released 4r2. As for the ram being overkill, depends on what you're doing with it. Some artists at Epic studios use 24gb. CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115073 RAM:…
first post! hope this helps. go to C: \Program Files\Pixologig\ZBrush 4.0\ZScripts on 64bit win7 its "(x86)Program Files" create a file called "DefaultZSript.txt" in the folder. copy the code below and save the file. restart zbrush. once in a blue moon light box pops up. but thats as good as it gets until pixologic fixes…
Wouldn't it be sweet if ZBrush5, Pixologic staff was reading this thread. ;) All of the above, if they said it, it must be worth while upgrades. I don't see how they can be that far off from pixel painting/texturing. 64Bits please & i agree about those memory errors on big meshes can't even click off or do things at the…
What's going to happen when Pixologic finally release a 64bit version of Zbrush? The stats required for Mudbox are really quite astonishing. I was really hoping to get into Mudbox a bit more but with those requirements and the poor brushes it's still disappointing. I second 3D coat as a good Mudbox alternative as well,…
