semi OT: Any ZBrush users around? 2004-03-03 - By +
Back
i would say it's definately great for painting displacment/ bump, etc...
for exporting normal mapping, and so on.
if you want modeling in it why not... but i wouldn't advise this to
newcomers to 3d or in general (depends in what studio you work or your
habits are), but study first topology, subdivision modeling, etc. like i
do still... (i mean anatomy stuff).
there are some vtm's on 3dbuzz or read the manuals or search for the
zbrush forum where you find tons of docs, how, where, why...
regards

Yah its very good all around 3d tool. I do all of my modeling in it.
Exports OBJs nice. makes really good blend shape targets. the cool
thing is how fast it is. down load the demo and play.<br>
