    Default Z4 Beta Testing By: Maarten Verhoeven

    Hi,
    I had the pleasure to be on the incredible talented Betateam and had a blast playing with the new tools, making Zbrush harder, better, faster and stronger.
    Here are the sculpts I was toying with, testing the new clip-, clay-and movebrushes and massive use of shadowbox!!! The final sculpts are mostly 100% Z.
    Hope you like them, I tried to use as many of the new features as I could in my designs, sculpt on...
    Maarten

    Reworked the main concept renders.

    The Alien Pirate is awesome.
    I'd like to watch a turntable or could you tell more about new ZB4 features and that model?
    Thanks in advance.

    thedust - Thanks a lot, turntable will be up soon... everything you see except the torso was created with Zspheres or shadowbox, the torso could have been build with Zspheres but I wanted to speed up the sculpting phase. You all should try claybuildup-brush it works fantastic.
    wayniac - Thanks mate, happy you like him. I will give you an explanation for the hair soon.
    dagoned - Thank you.
    Lucky_1 - Thanks Luc, I tried to test it all!!!
