Hey,
I’ve been working on a Cassiopeia fan art and I started laying down the scales for her tail by hand with an IMM brush I made.
Now, it’s ALOT OF WORK! I don’t mind taking the long road if it’s gonna look best, but I was wondering, is there a better way to do so? I tried nano mesh but it’s not really working well for me as I need the scales to be patterned in a criss cross pattern. I thought about alpha brush but I’m afraid it’ll look a bit random.
TL;DR
how would you approach sculpting scales into a model?
