How to paint on 3D object ?

hello zees :wink:

I´m new in here, working with zbrush for 3-4 days. I´m completely mad about so much informations in quicklinks, tutorials, manuals and other “s” and I still cannot find main point of painting on 3D objects.

I made this object with zspheres (picture), than turn it to mesh with Unified skin.

  1. How can I change for example the color of its hand to blue and torso color to green ?

  2. When I paint on it with simple brush tool, it goes well, but then I need to rotate object and colorize it from the back.
    I try to mark it (M+), but when I try to enter edit mode (click on small arrow that appears on the object) it simply created a new object with main color. :eek:

Please, can anybody give me link or better realy easy help HOW TO PAINT ON 3D OBJECTS while they stay editable ? :confused:

thankx a lot my dear friends !

Hi Zoom
I think that you must use Texture Master :slight_smile:
It’s the essential of Zbrush ! :smiley:
Look at the Demo inside the program !
And go there
A tut by Ken B you will know all about texturisation and modeling
(with only one sphere :slight_smile: (useful for the head :slight_smile:
When you modelise with Zsphere
you can colorise and get material on each
see the tut inside the prog :slight_smile:
Have happy Zbrushing

Hi!
Check out here:
Why Can’t I Edit My Object Anymore?

and then download (unless you already have) texture master.
With texture master you can drop your object, paint a side, pick it back up (editable) and repeat.
Hope this helps! :wink:

edit: looks like some1 got here b4 me…o well maybe ill still be of some use.
