Zbrush techniques for prototyping toys
Miscellaneous techniques on how i used ZBrush to sculpt some toys prototypes.
Even though it was realized in ZBrush4 (pre dynamesh) techniques shown are still valid and you can of course apply the same principles on a dynamesh oriented workflow, as shown in the final extra video added after the r2 came out
Credits to
Roach Attic Productions and thanks for giving me the permission to show the work in progress on the model, hope you enjoy the vids!
All the tutorials hosted on this site are free of charge, made from a passionate person who loves to share his (very limited) knowledge with people. I hope you will appreciate and find the videos useful, this will be the best payback for the time and the money i am investing on this project.
if, however, you would like to give a contribution for the video hosting fees and help me realize more and more stuff, for sure i will not feel offended
