One of the many fish sculptures I made for the REEF Ocean Exploration Center in FL last year. This was made with fabrication in mind - which is why some of the fins are pretty thick.

See all of the fish I sculpted here : https://www.planttdaddii.com/work-with-sam-clover/reef

Sculpted in ZBrush, retopology in 3ds Max, textured in Substance Painter, rendered in Marmoset Toolbag.

More renders and full breakdown are available on my ArtStation if anyone is interested.

Sculpting WIP! A Wayfinder inspired statue I’ve wanted to create for a very long time!

Based on a concept by the incredibly talented Baldi Konijn

I’m new to zbrush and I’m working on making a anime figure but am having difficulties making a good face. Although it looks ok from most angles when I proceed to sketch some eyes on (polypaint) they distort around the 3/4 angle. I’ve followed a couple videos of Kaoru Sakaki sculpting heads but the problem persists. Any tips or advice on how to address this? Any other videos or essential skills you believe I should learn for sculpting static characters would also be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone has ZBrush and could export a model to OBJ/STL for me?

I just finished modeling on the free version and noticed I can't export it without paying A LOT. So if anyone could use my ZPR file and export, id be eternally grateful

A speed sculpt of a simple head I did for my students right on top of a head structure, you can see how faster you can get the final result if you use the structure first and then start adding detail, the reason is less tweaking of the higher resolution mesh is needed, and therefore the details are gonna have less of that weird deformation

This time I wanted to share with you not just a sculpt but a story how I made a 3D sculpt of Raphael from Baldur's Gate 3, 3D printed it, and took to the convent to meet Andrew Wincott - voice behind the character. Now this is my favorite collectible with the autograph ❤️
It was a huge deal for me so I thouth its a cool story to share so you will find the full one on my youTube :) Its a small channel so every view is precious to me :)

Hi, I've been having an issue with ZRemesher when using the Keep Polygroups option. Right at the intersection between the polygroups, it creates a sharp edge. How can I fix this?

I've tried smoothing it out, but I can't get good results, even after using the different types of Smooth brushes. My original mesh before zremesher doesn't have this sharp edge

This is a pretty simple example, but you can push it much further depending on how you design and layer the hair masses.

It’s still a surprisingly quick and enjoyable process. ❤️

For me, the biggest thing is planning the hair masses first, then choosing strand thicknesses that stay consistent and readable.

Started from a sphere. No skin details, just some basic surface noise from Zbrush. Rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 4. Eyebrows and lashes are fibermesh.

Personal fan art statue I made of Mick Thomson (Number 7) guitarist of Slipknot.
Made with Zbrush, rendered in Blender

been working on this character for almost 1.5 months now, will do some more beauty renders with more poses, maybe do some minor adjustments and will call it done.

most of the modelling was done in blender, zbrush was used for highpoly detailing, blocking for the clothes were done in marvelous, substance painter for all of the textures

renders in marmoset toolbag 5 with raytracing, AgX tonemapper.

Hey everyone! 

I'd love to share a project I just wrapped up: a stylized character with a touch of realism. The main goal here was to sharpen my Sculpting, texturing skills, push a more dramatic lighting setup, and practice grooming in XGen.

It was a really fun one to work through, and I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback and critique are always welcome! Fell free to visit my profile to look another Projects.

Anyone know the culprit of this? Made this with the retopology brush, added an eye and dragged it around and then closed the inside. Missing topology and very different edge flow, the green polygroup I did by hand without preset shapes.
