LOL...I knew there was something new going on. Fast forward to :20 mark. This wasn't on CC but the technique works. Not new news but what's cool for me is...it means you don't have to mentally figure out your painting's lighting and cast shadows. You can layout your 3d in PS with lights and camera angle and paintover per…
After having a pixologic representative here at the office, I think a few things were made clear. Their program was a novelty until sculptors got a hold of it. Now most likely 90% plus of the people who have actually given them money for their program, are people using it to sculpt with. Yet they won't just start focusing…
What we are saying is learning zbrush would be alot easier then learning Maya. But Maya can be obtained easily and freely without a hassle. So I would strongly suggest starting off by learning Maya or any 3d software, studying it thoroughly From modeling part to texturing. Once you are fully confident, you can then start…
ZBC is your friend (isnt that where you got the Sebcesoir shader from ?:)) why afraid to ask them there? :) if you copy your material to the \Program Files\Pixologic\ZBrush3\ZData folder it should show up, but there is a limit on how many (I think?) also, did you try to save the document as well and then load it alongside…
You have a good model to finish, Scultris is a good tool to start sculpting, but I fear it falls short to model a character like Batman in Zbrush you could work it for parts and get better results, in terms of anatomy would say you the lip is a bit strange and the body lacks much definition, I recommend that if you are…
i have zmapper...haven't tried it yet. i checked out the tutorial on it written by the pixologic dudes. but there is still something i don't get. like...i built a low/med rez over my exported zbrush model(like sbuD3). now...do i unwrap that low/med rez model. then just use zmapper to bake normals into that UVset? i guess…
Hi ! I have a problem with spotlight in Zbrush may be you can help me! I use Zbrush4r7 but spotlight hidden and I can't load it. I've installed Zbrush a few times even Zbrush 4 but not appear in all version of Zbrush4 to r7. I also didn't find any tips to solve this problem in the internet. The first time that I installed…
The high-price point is definitely a barrier to entry for a lot of artists and students, and with a lot of other 3D apps creating stripped down versions or different models for that market, I'm not surprised to see the same from Pixologic. Wonder what kind of limitations they'll impose. They could still have new stuff for…
Subscriptions. If you're taking your profession seriously, there's no reason you can't afford Maya LT + Mudbox for a combined $30/month. Both are the closest to AAA/Hollywood tool sets on a budget and most people pay more for their cellphones. Anything on Steam usually goes on sale once during the holidays, so I would wait…
Hello everyone! I'm a solo game dev, creating a 3D indie game. And I would really appreciate some insights on the best 3D workflow possible to model realistic characters/ props/ vehicles, using Unreal Engine 4 & PBR materials. I can only rely on Maya LT & Substance Painter/ Designer because of my low budget :p . I can't…
