  • Very good tutorial man. Thank you for your time.

  • The zBrush UI is almost impossible without a bit of jumpstart in learning, this is a good video that is very helpful

  • seriously i did save project and i now got a useless 2d picture of my mesh WTF?!

    and all my saved meshes are also gone

    all my 3 hours have gone to waste?!

  • thanks for the great tutorial!

  • thank u so much!

  • Is it possible to create a certain size on your ZSphere when you create it, I hate having a big ball in thje middle of my character that i am creating, How do i shrink it?

  • @1337Wunderbaum As far as I know you can't specify a certain size. You can only create a ZSphere by clicking and dragging with the ZSphere tool. To shrink a ZSphere, which is what you are referring to, press the R key and click on the ZSphere (ball) you want to resize, and click and drag. If my memory is right, there may be several different circles you can click on to resize. Different circles have different effects. Experiment until you get the desired results.

  • @b00mYou ohh yeah i found it thanks

  • Thanx Alot :)

  • Nice guide, but remove all "uh..." and you could halve the time ;)

  • just one thing scale re-size what you did just move the camera

  • I have a feeling this is very simple- I open a project and then click Edit to begin sculpting and changing the object. When I go back to draw (now I am in 2d- right?) sometimes I accidentally click on the screen and drag out another object. How do I go back to the original object? Once you click out of edit from one object it seems impossible to go back to edit it again. The only thing I can do is to Ctrl-N to clear scene and drag out the first object again.

  • @mscarey87 you should always stay in edit, why do you turn edit of? and yes you cant go back to that object if you turn of edit, if you wanna add more objects use subtoll

  • when i open up zbursh there's some sort of a minimenu at the bottem, i have tried a bunch of stuff to get rid of it, but i cant!

  • Wait wait wait.......resolution is graphics? I thought resolution was picture quality?

  • @halo6534 "Screen Resolution" is about the amount of pixels in a screen, same with picture resolution, he just explained that the mesh was low-poly or high-poly. duh?

  • @halo6534 Resolution applies to everything when it comes to computer graphics. It really determines the size.Those meshes you make actually has a resolution. A gaming engine actually takes various different textures and such and joins them together seamlessly to draw the world. For instance, if you are playing a game and you are walking down the road. The road could be compromised of a 2048x2048 pixel image repeated and realigned over and over to give the illusion it's just one solid image.

  • @b00mYou Oh ok thanks, and if its a bump map and tessellation in the road is that still a textures that manipulated to look like its sticking up? Or did they make the mesh look like that then put road texture on it?

  • Thanx for the vid

  • Yea pretty good tut my first zbrush exp gone well.

  • i have a question i use zbrush but sometimes i can't rotate or move after creating my tool i desperated i can rotate never

  • @babyprincess208 Make sure edit mode is enabled. This is pretty much the number one reason why something like this happens in ZBrush. Otherwise I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would prevent you from rotating or moving.

  • Bro you have no idea how long I was searching for a good beginners tutorial for ZBRUSH! and then I finally found yours and its excellent! THANKS for breakin it down for those of us who are really new to this program! much appreciated!

  • Brilliant man thanks

  • First thing i would create are BOOBIES!

  • Please, stop saying uhm so much. Other than that thanks for the video.

  • Hey all, can someone tell me what 3D art software the pro's use for video game development

  • @gyroknot ZBrush and Autodesk Maya

  • Great tutorial !!! Thanks :0)

  • how can I select my object?-i load it and i cant select it.

    and how do i delet it??

  • @gregzzy090

    yeah i'D liek to knwo the same! did u figure out already? D:

  • awesome tutorial!

  • he kinda sounds like dane cook

  • THIS IS THE BEST TUTORIAL EVER!!! Man, u're great at doing this keep going. This helped me alote.

  • boob with 2 nipples, cool

  • Thanks for the tutorials man. This software is so frustrating to use. I swear it has a mind of it's own. One thing I was wondering though since I still can't do it. Is how would you for example put objects within objects? Where you have a lot of control for eyes instead of maybe just building up an eye inside of a eye socket. Or say adding another sphere making fur out of it but have a lot of free control to move it any where on the mesh and smooth it in. Hope that makes sense since I struggle.

  • This program makes me want to throw my computer out a window.

  • @DigitalBeast6

    I just did and it doesn't work out there either!

  • @AndyLinss LOL! I feel your pain I thought it might help make Maya an Zbrush work better on it. Oh well....

  • @DigitalBeast6 To think that the games industry are obsessed with it.

  • your voice is cool : D

  • useless

  • Hey, is there a way to hollow out a mesh? Thanks in advance :D

  • how can i cut holes in a sclulped?!

  • Really useful, studying gamedesign at school,thanks

  • so. my zsphere when rendered or whatever has no back. When I rotate I can't see it at all. I open a new document, follow your instructions and still no back. I dunno what I'm doing wrong. I also have zbrush 4.0. I was hoping to do some sculpting but I can't even seem to get the zsphere in proper working order to be sculpted

  • @TheLoser6 This is a very common problem with ZSpheres. When you create your first ZSphere, immediately turn edit on and create another ZSphere on top of that one (hold shift after you start dragging to make it exact size) and do the same on the bottom. This sill make sure you have a solid shape where you don't have an invisible background.

  • well i need help -.-'

    Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

    Remember when the users controlled the site and not corporations?

    Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revolution!

  • What is the difference between zbrush and the free version Sculptris? And how might one go about making it second life ready? They're about to introduce mesh and I heard zbrush can do it. Just the technical details I could use feedback on!

  • ty for the shortcut keys

  • after 2 days of working on the basics i got my first dragon head done. tnx to u now i know how to use the basics. tytyty. oh here's my vid if u wanna check it out. tnx again. ^________^

    youtube.com/watch?v=ULpjknKd8g­s

  • Not to sure why everyones giving u shit? i learnt quite a lot from this coz iv never used Zbrush before. So thanx for the help man!

  • Hitting ESC just closes the program for me, so within the first minute, I'm already lost with this tutorial. ><;;

  • ty good sir. learned a lot from this vid. ^_^

  • Awesome thank you :3

  • Hey! :)

    Is this program able to make them move? -if not, am i able to move my sculpture into another program to make them move?

    

  • thank you for the tutorial

  • i cant have more then 2 subdivisions.. :(

  • CTRL D doesnt work with me..

  • what version of zbrush is this , mah bro? I ask this question because I have absolutely no idea whatsoever version this is, and am very interested in what version this is, so I may purchase it and watch this tut and become cash money famous as a 3D artist. Thank you.

  • When I use the Zsphere toll and create one over the basic sphere, it looks "twisted" every time I press A. This issue only appears if there are two spheres mashed together. If there is more - it looks ok. So.. any way to deal with this?

  • Excellent tutorial! Thanks for writing out the hotkeys...makes it a lot easier to refer to than scrubbing through the video.
