Re: yet another retopo or not thread
It's best to know traditional subD. Having to do even the most simplistic shapes in Zbrush and being forced to deal with the numerous downsides and heavy meshes isn't advisable. Most people agree that Zbrush is great for doing hardsurface if you haven't nailed down the design yet. If you have a detailed concept, and the… -
Re: Question about 3DS Max to Zbrush workflow for a gun.
The advantage of taking your model from Max into ZBrush is ZB connects all your verts upon import and you can dynamesh the model (use Dynamesh Master you can download it) and use polish on the pieces. Dynamesh master even respects polygroups so can specifically select psrts to polish collectively or separately. This gives… -

Batmobile 2016
Day 1 Basic Blocking of this vehicle. The batmobile 2015 (Fanart). Not thinking about the topology yet rather just making sure I have geometry there in place to work with.

Looking for a tutorial showing edgeless layer sculpting
Hi, I am trying ndo2 for creating tileable hardsurface normal maps. But I have a hard time finding any information about how to stop ndo2 from applying bevels at the edges of my texture space. So I thought the edgeless layer might be what I am looking for. But the documentation is thin and many tutorials seem to have the… -

Re: [Character] Corrupt (Beyond Human)
Spine and tail segment blockouts Today I've been doing some hardsurface dynameshing. Made a concept for the tail segment. Wanted to keep the silhouette as basic as possible for tri count considerations. I also did the same the neck, however allowed for more complex shapes. Started using the live boolen feature in 4r8, such… -
Re: NVil(1.0) Released
Sandu, while looking at your work I was incredibly impressed by the cleanliness of your meshes and the presentation. Would you say NVil directly attributed to the results or would you say it's your own experience. Of-course I don't mean whether it's a one-click wonder program, but does it offer tools that are better than… -
Re: Noob question about smoothing techniques
sorry, English isn't my native language and I don't know the proper terms what I'm mean is smoothing edges like that: But I've seen vids where people just use Dynamesh and polish in Zbrush - like here: http://polycount.com/discussion/168610/proboolean-dynamesh-hardsurface-workflow-tutorial/p1 (and I'm not talking about… -
Re: Grass in Max
Hey Progg, Graphite modeling tools has a object paint feature, but I personally don't find it all that useful or as fully featured as Neil "soulburn" Blevins object painter script. http://www.neilblevins.com/cg_tools/soulburnscripts/soulburnscripts.htm There's a reason the guy is a Technical Director at Pixar, he has a…
