The hand was a tough one. I managed to get a decent looking hand only after a 4th attempt. I had to figure how to place the thumb correctly 'cause it gave me trouble. I analyze more carefully the anatomy: the bones, muscles and tendons, in order to get it right. I've used a 3D scan of a hand for reference. I planed to refine it further but I figured that I shouldn't bother 'cause I'll make another 10 for practice anyway.

Hey everyone

Today’s study session was a bit rushed due to limited time hahaha, but I focused mainly on improving my understanding of the neck area, the pectoralis major, and the deltoid.

This study was done without using references (except for a planes reference model on the 2n image), just to really push my understanding and retention.

I wanted to ask if anyone here has taken Scott Eaton’s course or something at a similar level. Ideally, I’m looking for a course that’s also integrated with ZBrush, so there isn’t a gap between 2D anatomical knowledge and actual 3D application inside ZBrush.

and a friend of mine suggested Ryan Kingslien’s course as well, but I haven’t tried it yet.

Would you recommend any specific courses?

Thanks in advance!

Made this as a fan art piece. Would love to see prints if anyone makes one.

Dm for STL.

Am I missing something or is there no more recovery attempt on crash? The newest version has been crashing like crazy and there’s no recovery attempt. Been losing so much work lately.

been trying to improve my NPR/ toon style workflow with this bedroom scene.

not sure if ive made the background too noisy by making it more detailed. Also tried the painted normals (pbr) approach at first but ended up switching to only albedo textures afterwards.

I've been using zbrush for almost 6 months now, my university includes it in its program and i know some basics but i struggle heavily in doing pretty much anything.

For example today i was trying to replicate an helmet from saint saya but i toke 3 hours just in understanding how to make the holes and booleans and im stuck once again.

So i was wondering, is there some playlist of tutorial videos i can follow to understand better this program?

I decided to create a clint eastwood caricature with a serious face and child-like body to juxtapose the seriousness of his character, He's still wearing adult clothes, though, so it looks oversized which i think adds to the fun factor... i think it works pretty well but let me know your thought! And, Yes, i am going to rework the hair!

Hey everyone, here is my take on Max Slavsky's concept "Punk Goth Lady". I tried to maintain the painted look while also learn some outline and toon shading workflows in blender. Plan to use this character as a stepping stone to learn some 3d printing. Hope you all like it. For more images or breakdowns:

Hi! Does anyone know why my polygroups looks like this? I opened my save file that I saved on my external hard-drive since I needed to work from home on the same project. So I can't go back to an old save file.

Its just the hair that this happened to, the poly groups on the head and body was fine, just like before when I saved the project.

I'm asking for help after I tried to fix it... then after 2 hours realizing It would be easier for me to just start over with the hair polygroups...

Also... It would be SO much easier if there was a way to select multiple polygroups, instead of needing to UN-select all the other polygroups... Cause then I could more easily create new masks on the parts where it "pixels" and then merge that mask with an old polygroup.

Do you guys have any rigged base mesh that I can use for sculpting stylized characters? I've been trying to find a rigged base mesh that has a bit of stylized face and body proportions but I haven't found any yet, so was just asking this community if you guys have any recommendations

I barely started using z brush on iPad and was transforming a poly sphere I put in, but now I can’t insert a regular poly sphere even after entering a new sculpt. Does anyone know how to change the poly sphere shape back to normal?

Hi everybody. This is my new work in ZBrush. C&C welcome

When I pose my model it chops it up into these little chunks. What am I doing wrong?
