Hi!
I’m trying to create a zipper on a piece of clothing, and i was wondering if it was possible to have the zipper curve brush to just follow an edgeloop. I have some great loops that would be perfect but i’m not sure how to get zbrush to follow those.
I tried add to edge, ive tried the snapping settings but i can’t seem to figure it out.
Hello Kevin
In the Stroke > Curve Functions menu there is a button labeled “Frame Mesh” that will draw a curve along either polygroup borders, an open mesh section, or along a creased loop, depending on the settings.
Use this function to draw a curve along the desired edgeloop. You could hide a portion of your mesh up to the edge loop, or make sure it borders two separate polygroups, or you could quick-crease the edge loop with ZModeler> Edge > Crease > Edge Loop.
Once the curve has been drawn, switch to your curve brush then click on the curve to draw out the zipper.
Hi Spyndel.
That totally worked, life saver, thanks a lot!
Cheers.
