Layers and putting in place

[Mr Z]

Hi guys/girls, its me again :cool:

I would just like to know:

after creating the layers you want, how does one put the pieces together

for instance if I create a face on one layer and eyes on another, how do I possition the eyes into the sockets.

once again thank you in advance ;) :confused:

the great thing about zbrush is you can have alot of layers and still be able to see the whole image... heres what you do... layer 1 create your head tool,.. create another layer and place your eyes on that...heres a quick script to show you what i mean...quick script.txt (http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/zbc_uploads/user_file-1010131685tyr.txt)

its not perfect and theres no head tool but you get the basic idea.. enjoy..in the script panel choose show actions and change the speed to its highest settings to slow the script down...

Thank you Dr. jjwow

I just got online so I'm going to check the script now.

Yep, get to know the Transform gyros very well. They and markers are just about your best friends. Keep overlapping elements on separate layers, so that if you decide that you need to reposition one you can do so without having to mess up the whole image. (It's also handy when doing things like painting eyelid shadow onto the eyes -- if the eye is on another layer from the head, you can brush with impunity and not worry about accidentally painting on the head.)

Thanks for the info. I will certainly put it to use.
