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?
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.
if i have a shape i can not wrap my head around. i just go in and draw a wireframe over it. starting with the more detailled parts to see how much resolution i would need in the simpler elements. a ring is always easy to upres
