It’s one of the powerful tool of Zbrush :slight_smile:
Concept
:large_orange_diamond: draw your form of mask
:large_orange_diamond: Grabb it (MrgbZgrabber tool)
:large_orange_diamond: = you obtain an Alpha
:large_orange_diamond: Make the Stencil (Sub Menu Alpha)
:large_orange_diamond: Clear Canvas (Ctrl + N)
:large_orange_diamond: draw what you want
:large_orange_diamond: Call the Stencil (Menu Stencil)
:large_orange_diamond: Play with it with the Space Barre
:large_orange_diamond: You can enable the “Wrape mode” if you have an 3D object to paint
:large_orange_diamond: Paint your Canvas (Invert the stencil if needing, Menu Stencil)
:large_orange_diamond: That’s all
Hope this help!
Have fun Zbrushing! :sunglasses:
