Hi Polycount forum, I plan to create a project that looks like a horror movie scene, all made of play clay. I am trying to apply fingerprint to the model now. How can I do it, what do you recommend? I use maya and redshift to do this... Thank you. :)
Hey guys! I'm trying to figure out the differences between the clay tubes and clay build up brushes. Usually I use the move brush for bigger shapes. Then, dam_standard, hpolish, inflate, pinch and clay for details or specific situations. However I'm not sure which one to use when creating mass to define my shapes. Both…
Looking to do some clay sculpting very soon and i'm just curious as to what clays people like to work with, what you find the best value for money is and where you buy it (uk). I've been using super sculpy and sculpy firm previously which were quite nice to work with, however it's quite expensive to buy. I've heard good…
I have been playing around with zbrush 3 for a few months now and I have really taken a shine to using the clay brush to build up my form. I really love it because i can loosely use expressive strokes to build up my basic form. I upgraded to 3.5 rd in the aim to start using zpheres launch myself into character sculpting. I…

Thanks for the answers thus far. The expert is involved with comics to film licensing. The "tip" was basicly "make some clay models of your characters for visualizing rendering cgi/ video game graphics." The slideshow I saw showed what looked like a flexible clay model being photgraphed digitally against a green…
Hey dudes, I'm looking to get into doing some proper clay sculpting to improve my general sculpting knowledge and hopefully carry that back over to mudbox (that, and have something to do that doesn't involve staring at a screen, which is all I ever seem to do these days). I've noticed quite a few of you on here do…
Hi okidoki - Yes, I've actually been playing around with creating my own matcaps. That's a good idea using Max clay. I'll give that a try. I don't know why I'm so picky about the material - just am. ;)
that's not true. the hardness of the clay is always very important. the hardness of the clay determines how fine the detail can be in general relative to the scale of the sculpture. for instance if you work with very soft clay at a very small scale fine detail is extremely hard to do. the clay just becomes to soft to to…
^ didn't realize how many practical sculptors there were here. As far as tools go; it really depends entirely on what you are attempting to do. I do most of my sculpture work with my hands, but when it comes to getting down to the nitty gritty of things, I like to keep a spatula, needle, and loop tool at hand, as well as a…
