Thanks for that! Sorry for the double post, and the late reply. Forgot to check back in for a little while. I unfortunately don't have any work saved. I never got anything I was satisfied with, and just kept restarting and playing around more with the brushes and filters but could never quite get it right. Not too long…
Hey there :) I have that mesh in maya: notice the creased edges on the outer edges, i added them to get a smoother look while maintain the hard edges there when subdividing: because WITHOUT that crease subdiv would look like that: so i export that with creases as FBX: and import it into maya: the "creased" edge is now…
Hello, i'm new here, i'm trying to learn Zbrush, i'm kinda confortable with organic sculpting (not very good but i can do things) but for hard surface, i know hpolish and a few other brush but i still suck and i don't even know how to start to make an armor. i want to know for you what is the best course that could help me…

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/X1dWQY Game-Ready, Tom Hardy Likeness for an upcoming (nearly finished) fully fledged character. Heavily inspired by his James Delaney look on Taboo (as I feel it suits what's coming quite well). I did change the beard according to other references (PureRef) and what I feel looks best. It…
You can model hard surfaces in mudbox, but if you dont even know how to model them well with traditional sub-d you're going to have lets of problems trying to sculpt that sort of thing, it is not something that is easily done so i would suggest learning how to do proper poly modeled stuff, and when you have a good grasp on…

Update: Hey guys, trying my hand at doing some hard surface armor, after reading Afisher's tutorial and Gav's Swordmaster book. Figured I'd post what I have so far and get some opinions.
