Making each turn a polygroup would help like cyrid said. You can do this easily in Max with material IDs as well. You can turn on BackFace Masking for brushes in Zbrush. Brush>AutoMasking>BackfaceMask This would help with sculping on the underside of the cloth.

Hey all, I saw someone asking about hard surface in ZBrush and decided it's about time I posted something. A few months ago I finished a character for university using only ZBrush for the hard surface modelling (Topogun and Maya for Re-topo and UV) and thought the techniques I used might be of use to anyone who has not…
I'm trying to sculpt some damage into this gun stock but I can't figure out how to get the same look that's in my references. All the tutorials I find online are for either stylized wood or wooden planks with lots of grain and rough, splintery fibers, which is not the look I'm going for. Can anyone help me out? Like, what…
imho Zbrush is one of the cheapest 3d software in the long run. I`ve bought it 4 or 5 years ago, received lots of useful updates - all for free. And 4r8 is coming free of charge too. Compare that to subscription based software which usually dissapoint on new features. If you just want to try sculpting, Blender has quite…
So true man. I can't tell you how many times I get frustrated by the simple things... like how file is NOT the top leftmost menu item and I have to hunt for it everytime because I forget that the menu items are all alphabetical. The only reason I love/use zbrush so much is because I customized it enough to the point where…
Hey! I'm new to 3d and can't seem to find solution to my problem. I have a model of avatar fully made in Zbrush. high and low poly with uv maps. Was planning on importing model further to Substance Painter and texturing it there as I need to paint a specific pattern right on the skin of avatar. Then realised my laptop…
Hi! Is it possible in Zbrush to have freehand masking active at the same time when lasso masking active? Beacause when I am in "MaskPen / FreeHand mode" I could paint mask on a model and make a mask rectangle if i click outside of the model. And when I am in "Brush / Lasso mode" I could only use lasso whenever I try to…
Hey guys. I'm currently working in an illustration firm and have been asked to model a bottle in zBrush for a client. Basically the client is going to get it plastic-cut and sent to a glassworks and it will then be appearing in shops etc. Pretty cool assignment so I'm pretty intent on nailing it. Its a 4 sided square-ish…
Hello Everyone. So I've been recently trying to replicate this stylized metal surface detail from Michael Vicente's (Orb) Artstation. This detail is only on the cutting part of the axe, some kind of a squarish smashed shape. Michael wrote an explanation on his Artstation saying that "this is just clay brush strokes, dialed…
