Organic pipe

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi, could you guys please advise me on how to model an organic pipe with multiple ins and outs?

It should represent a small anatomical vascular system.
It needs to be hollow and organic shaped.
It will be needed for blood flow simulation.

  1. Should I start with ZModeler and then continue with Dynamesh for organic looks?
  2. How can I connect multiple pipes with ZModeler?
  3. Or do you suggest a different approach?

Sketch is attached (dark black lines = vasular system, internal carotid artery)

Thank you very much in advance, best,
Lucius

I think I’d use ZSpheres for something like this. They are fine if you don’t need to construct complete rings/circles.
