Just a tip that worked for me, if you felt frustrated with the result of your first sculpture
using sphere, dont rage quit, try again but using a model of the human head, that already comes in the zbrush, it have perfect landmarks that will help you alot, just move the nose, stretch the eyes, claybuild here, inflate there, until it match your monster reference, It is important for beginners (myself included) to finish their first sculptures with the "feeling of success", this will encourage them to keep going!
Good point! Thank you
@Ragnarok As a beginner I've always been afraid to use a base mesh.... "because the pros always use spheres, if i use a base mesh, its cheat right??" NO!! i said to myself, iam not a pro, i dont know anatomy, I barely know the zbrush commands, I barely know the brushs... i will use a base mesh, and this opened the world of 3d to me
, now I'm learning Maya, I want to learn how textures, rig, animation, and various other 3d softwares, just because I had "that feeling of success" in zbrush using base mesh, some may feel proud to say "I've turned that sphere into that monster "but I as a beginner have no problem in saying" I turned this human head into this monster " I think it's up to the beginner to decide how hard he's going to be with himself. (this was the first time I used a base mesh , after getting frustrated with the sphere, and it was crucial to have continued to study 3d

I wish I had read this comment before starting. Demotivation is a real pain that can cause young budding sculptors like me to throw away the brush.
It is really looks like my first sculpt, except i was trying to do human head.
Lol
Haha! Same for us
Lots of times inspiration will take you places you didn’t initially intend to... the frustrating part is when inspiration doesn’t take you to finishing that 2D concept due tomorrow!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
XDD
same... mine look like Quasimodo
Good stuff as usual guys! A small suggestion is getting one of those "keyboard press" overlays, that show up on the corner of the screen when you're holding alt, shift and other keyboard combinations. Might help some newer users with getting accustomed to keyboard shortcuts.
I just want to say, I appreciate that you guys give some assurance from time to time. It can be a bit overwhelming seeing your skills and thinking about how to get there but when you reassure us about not being worried about it, that really helps a lot.
You guys are a Godsend to those of use who really can't afford them fancy sculpting courses. Thank you so much for the awsome content ❤
This is a great first sculpt! That beginner intro to zbrush was an awesome video also
I came to this video a few years back got frustrated with Z brush and quit. I have a tablet now, totally inspired and ready to give it a second shot. Thanks.
Thanks, guys for this great tutorial! I am a beginner in sculpting and this tutorial will help me a lot.
This is a great Video, with a pair of some really nice, clever guys. Some true gems were dropped here - thank!
I'm convinced this channel is run by mind readers everytime I think about learning a particular subject a video is made within the hour lol
Shhhh!
That's the secret behind flippednormals! Don't tell anyone else of our.. Abilities
The dark side of the force lead to abilities many see as... Unnatural
great tutorial guys, thank you!
you way to teach changed a lot in my sculpt realy thanks
Hello :)
I'm a bit new on your channel, but I love a lot every video I've seen, you guys are excellent professors, the way you explain things.
I would like to ask if you can make a video talking about how to solve he problesm with n-gons when beveling edges.
Cheers!!!
🙏🙏 i learn lots of stuff from thanks to sharing this amazing tuts 😘😘
This would be very helpful for the newbies.
agreed (as a newbie)
Wow, thanks for the PureRef recomendation!
No worries! We use it for everything
you guys are the best !!!
Have you guys ever done one of those live sculpting sessions with Pixologic? I would love to see you guys sculpt for a few hours straight!
ya know, You Guys Rock!!! Thank you all so very much.....
Great. Thanks guys!
Your shared video is trully amazing and I am so lucky to be able to see your beautiful work through your channel. I believe that we share a similar goal to be achieved.
I'm had zbrush for a long time but never got into it. I more less a 3d model artist with 3ds max. But sculpting was something I wanted to get into. Heck I even bough a Tablet like 2 years ago and rarely used it. was XP-Pen. When you mentioned about real world reference and then turn it into something else. You can clearly see the Gorilla in the facial features. But yeah I will subscribe to you channel and check out your beginner tutorial.
Well sht you make it look so easy...
Thank you!!
this is the best video in youtube
Thank you!
Really helpful, thanks..
Looks so easy when you do it. I’m not really clear the part you said about if you want join it onto a body?
I just started using Zbrush. So far I’ve learnt some basics of the UI and just starting to try and sculpt. I’m finding it incredibly difficult to figure out how to achieve even close to what I’m trying to do. For example yesterday I was trying to sculpt some lips but it just looked like a mess and I had to keep undoing it. I’m hoping that I’ll have the patience to keep going and see some improvements. I don’t have the patience to learn polygon modelling apart from low poly stuff. I’d really love to be able to make some detailed characters. Thanks for the videos. They are very helpful. Didn’t know about turning off alpha 👍
Great video thanks very helpful.
Thanks!
Awesome tutorial!
Thanks Jason!
is it possible to have the Shortcut buttons shown at the bottom in your tutorials for us beginners?
@Ergean Ismail i know right cause i remember watching earlier Maya tutorials and they always had the shortcut keys appear while the tutorial is going on.
Lucky Enam I don’t think zbrush has that feature like maya or blender. They’d have to do that in post in after effects or premiere or whatever they use to edit their vids. But zbrushs shortcuts are fairly simple for the most part. Ik it doesn’t seem like it but imo they’re easier than something like blenders shortcuts
@@davantejohnson5980 Ohhh okay then but if its possible that would be Dope
@@luckyenam6329 can you tell me which videos was that?
I forgot which keys to use on Maya
Thank youu🤗🤗
So when i turn off symmetry will it effect my workflow when i turn it back on or the retopology needs to be different? i am really confuse?
So in the video you said using dynamesh is just for building form and then you subdivide when detailing, so when you are detailing a model like in the section where you take the chunk out of the ear how would you go about adding more geometry to that one area without subdividing and adding more geometry to the entire model? I ask cos you can see when you push that section of ear in, you can see the polys start to show though so would there be a way to add more to that area?
Bravo
i alwyas love the videos! do you guys do courses? like international students?
Thanks!
We don't currently but we're looking into mentorships
@@FlippedNormals how do you guys give mentorships? Is it paid? Or free? Where can I get the info? Your website
Hey can you provide us a guide what to make next on our own for practice... the most annoying thing is not knowing what to make next which will boost my confidence and will be easy... I am stuck in the situation what should i make next and it happens with me every time even when I was learning blender....
I just used move brush and its made scary goblin out of hopeless tiny gob. And this 1st work was not bad at all. maybe I have hidden talents)
Awesome! Good luck :D
Wish I could afford Zbrush... or Zbrushcore ! I need it !
look for a wacom 3d tablet, i think that have a zbrush core licence
a troll hero, beautiful!
Great stuff. I wonder how you can use photos reference inside Zbrush?
Import
Do you have a tutorial video on the interface of Z Brush? Like this is where you do this, and this is that, and that is this, type of walkthrough?
We do indeed!
th-cam.com/video/_yKGfcp2z3k/w-d-xo.html
when you start with a cube, how many times do you need to subdivide and crease it? and should you do this before you start sculpting?
I have an issue that I hope you can help with. Your clay looks smooth all around. Mine looks like it has grid marks all over it. When cutting out the holes for the eyes, mouth and nose, it looses the smoothness bad. I followed your direction and used the button to restore the resolution. That mesh button where it adds the grid and you click and drag outside of the face. Anyway, after doing that, it still isn't smooth like yours. I'm not sure if I missed something. I'm pretty sure my laptop meets minimum requirements. Please help! 🤘
Will there be a part 2 of this?
nice ty :)
i know and use zbrush for 1 year now, nevertheless i had to watch that video.
i shall not miss a single video from you guys! :D
Maybe it would be good to cover that part after dynamesh: "duplicate/zremesh/reproject" for better topology to sculpt on?
Thanks for that content!
Great tutorial, but I really am struggling to keep up... because I can't figure out how in the world you change sizes and intensity on the fly. I see your tool suddenly getting bigger and smaller, but how do I do that without changing it every time in the settings.
Obrigado
Why does one disable DynaMesh after a while? I am just curious. I am 8 hours into my first sculpt, and I really feel like I made a lot of progress, but haven't yet disabled the mesh, because I didn't know I should.
How were you able to load pureref image into zbrush ?
I realized sometimes my model's proportion is off compared to reference...(i.e. distance between eyes, nose to mouth, the general face size, etc) is there a way to ensure that my model can stick closer to the reference?
Modeling directly on top of the images is a good way. You can put the images in the background and reduce the opacity of the ZBrush window (top right)
i was kind of crushed when you said you cant sculpt with a mouse, although it makes sense. i desperately tried using a tablet, but I just couldn't get it. After a few months of failure and serious wrist problems i think zbrush defeated me. i had actually got rather far with just the mouse.
I've been poly modeling for years using blender wanted to give a go at zbrush sculpting and got myself a cheap tablet. Huion brand. After a week I can NOT think of using the mouse for anykind of design ever
It's literal satisfaction to watch. haha can't wait for my tablet to come... Mouse is a big no-no. I just experienced it. No way..
excellent tutorial but let's be realistic, no one makes a first sculpt of such high quality
you guys are bob ross of zbrush
Hah! Thank you
Pleasea tell me what is the resoultion of your dynamesh its why not stech in first eye
How are you rotating the object without taking your curser off the face an while you are in Clay buildup mode?
How do I delete a small feature that I did wrong without starting again? Ctrl drag outward is it?
How do i disable zooming in and zooming out when i use alt+drag
can i follow this on mudbox?
Really I sculpt with a mouse. But maybe I should use a Wacom.
We highly recommend it. Your sculpting will be better and you'll be less likely to be injured
👍
can anyone tell me .does this channel have complete beginners guide step by step. about the UI and its functions
Yes we do :)
th-cam.com/video/_yKGfcp2z3k/w-d-xo.html
Please tell me what focal length do you guys use?
This is just default ZBrush. A good one is 35mm or 50mm
What is the name of the reference is he the villian in harry potter ??
SCREENCAST KEYS PLS!
it felt like.... "my sculpting lvl before this video 0 -------- my sculpting lvl after this video 99++ "
Amazing! Really glad to hear that.
why not just use sculptris pro?
I am not watching this shit if there's an ad every 5 minutes. Second video in a row and I can't just leave my phone sitting because I end up with a 10 minute ad trying to play at some point.
names or appli
How can I change the background? Mine is a black to grey gradient.
you go to the document tab (top left corner) then you should see a range option, set it to 0.
been doing the first 11 mins of the video for more than 4 hours now...
Where are the eyeballs?
we will never pay you what you did for us is way more MODIFIED from (i need a doctor song)
Trying to stop my urge to click Skip Ad as I fallow along ..
Um.. what about the teeth?
Would like to see the salty rich kids with All the ultimate technology gear and tablets and STILL not being able to do nothing 🤣. People train your eyes!
Too many shortcuts for the begginers, not that is a problem, but you always should tell where is button (tools, mode..) is in UI.
i am geting killed on blender is zbrush better for sculpting
i tried to sculpt,but it looks like my drunk neighbour(((
LOL THERE IS NO ANY MAGICAL BRUSH😂
way too fast
