I started a new suit 
Awesome thread, your hard surface stuff is really good!
I have a question however: when I use the clip brush, most times I end up with ugly artifacts near the clipped edge; like the geometry hasn’t been deleted, but it’s just flattened where the I clipped it. I can post a picture if my problem is not clear 
Does this happens also to your models? How do you get rid of such artifacts?
Thanks!
thanks
you can “group loop” your extracted mesh before you use the clip brush,
that should clean up the mesh*
or you turn the extracted mesh into a single Polygroup,
thats a good way to avoid artifacts,
always use the same angle for cutting
if there are still artifacts the only way to get rid of them is using (hide/select/ del hidden/close holes)
the best way to get clean hard surface topo is using the zbrush retopology,
but i it gives my a headache and i cant use it longer than 10 minutes without getting knots on my fingers:p
when working with clip brushes that way
make sure that “polygroups” is activated under “clip brush modifiers” in the “brush” menu
just sketching around,
I’m a big fan of the Blame! Series by Tsutomo Nihei,
the new stuff is inspired by his manga:)
update
I love the new suit thing, you should push it!
Looking good! :lol:
hey thank you,
another update, this time i’ll finish it…maybe…:D^^
another update
Hi Gwainbarek
Really enjoying your hard surface works…I’m more of an organic type myself, but admire good hard edged works when I see them, and also envey the patience it takes to create all of those machined parts…I especally like this last piece that you are working on…It has a nice flow to it’s shapes…inorganic, but organic in their nature and shape…nice combination…and job done on it so far…
…Looking forward to seeing where you take it to next…
another update
I seriously love this, its elegant and beautiful.

nice. thanks for the vids
awesome thanks for sharing
May I ask, how are you achieving the effect on your armor where it looks like the main panels have layered plates on top of it?
Are you sculpting this in, or are those actually another subtool that you’ve extracted out?
Hopefully my question made sense lol, I reread it, but couldn’t think of a better way to word this…
Corey
Great video, as usual from you
How do you make such precise and quick masking?
Thanks for sharing!
Hi, thank you for all your comments,

A BIG !ThankYOU! to Mahlikus the Blackfor creating the amazing
MAHcut mech and Polish Brushes!
And for his new MAHmask Bias Brushget those brushes!!!
@Ehren/darxx
thanks:)
@stefanobernardi
thank you man,
the masking is drawn on a pen tablet and mostly done with the MAHmask brush from Mahlikus,
I also used MaskCurve to “clean” the mask
@coreyschroeder
it’s a new extracted subtool,
sometimes I use the mask for derfomation-inflate and sculpt it
btw: thanks for that Organic Buildup brush
moved it right to my quick selection
it’s like claybuildup “light” with a really nice falloff
and again
thank you guys,
I see myself as areal zbrush noob,
sometimes it took me weeks to teach myself things others learned on a single day in ZBrush^^
so its really cool to see that those timelapsed videos helped you
