Finished this about a year ago and forgot to post here. The work was done for a client with a mix of Zbrush and Substance Modeler in VR. Design is my own.
Final project was around 2.2 billion triangles, crunched right down to around 1 million per print part in Zbrush.
WOW!!! The details you put in this piece is incredible. Thank you for sharing so much with us.
how much did you end up doing in Substance Modeler
I would say roughly 30-40% in Substance Modeler and 60-70% including all the keying and final prep for print in Zbrush.
It was a back and forth. The armour, for instance, was blocked out in ZB > larger detailing and further shape refinements in Modeler > back to ZB for final polishing/surface detailing and print prep. Most of the larger detailing from Modeler got an extra surfacing pass in Zbrush.
Another example is the hair: initial blockout in Modeler > final clump and strand adjustments and strand sculpting and refinements in ZB.
So yeah, it was a back and forth using the strength of each program. Once the ZB scene was setup to scale it was easy to jump in and out between the 2 programs.
awesome! Thank you for sharing this with us.
