You can make a grayscale mask out of your recorded movement - select your fancy brush, make necessary stamping on one separate layer, extract the silhouette with Ctrl+ layer thumbnail click. It will have all the jittered detail that complex brush left. Remove the layer with modifications. Then you can use that mask to…
I just color my mesh red/green/blue and load each channel as a selection and use it to mask off areas. It gives you a crisper edge than the magic wand/color system. You can use secondary colors (ie, 255,255, 0) and selection subtraction/intersection to isolate up to 6 masks if you need more fidelity. With the magic wand…
Great stuff, love that lich set. I remember a long time ago you posted a set of screenshots showing what different combinations of masks looked like on that tide weapon... would you maybe still have that?

It's for the game trailer purposes, we want to make it look expensive ;) I had to put a SSS mask on glass bottles, some drapery. The mask…

I've been delayed in posting my work due to matters outside of this project, but also this asset had me stumped for a while. I was trying to figure out what to make the ornamental piece on the front of the crate. I started off trying to make a piece of metal wit wing engravings. I'm still a ZBrush newbie, so that proved to…
