I’ve seen many people sculpt where the chain mail, or other sculpted feature wraps all the way around a model and it looks great. I can never get this without having some type of seam visible. It’s nearly impossible to line it up using the stencil. Is there a tutorial that really shows how to achieve this effect? Is the entire think drawn in as an alpha and then extruded or is there some other process?
The best way is with alpha. Trying to match the pattern with brush - simply impossible.
Uwrapp your model, make the texture to alpha and tile it in your 3dapp to get the desired effect, then import the OBJ in ZB.
Remember that Tile texture in ZB does not work for you to extract alpha, or to create a polypaint… and so on…
