I did a rough high poly base then imported to zbrush to tweak some areas (the ring) as well as sculpt the grip and the cloth on the ring. @Hawt I think we should be able to modify the design a bit. Just to the point of colors and small silhouette changes. Maybe make the ring a bit bigger or smaller.
Bout zbrush, i got tired of the "spindle" like topology (infinite loops if you select rings, hated it) it created, it doesn't help remove rings(+) guess people got away with clicking remesher and calling it a day? Does it still spindle loop?
Drew out my fake NBA arena and planning for making it modular. Did the ring, need to do normals and spec maps. The rectangle is NBA court size paint to paint (end to end up to the painted border), the one in the ring is burly-man height (like 6'7"~6'8"). Racks, ring accessories and jumbo tomorrow.
