ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

I’m having great difficulty with color.

First, regardless of what subtool I pick, when I change color it’s always applying the color to the first subtool. Once I was able to color a subtool, but I can’t remember what I did to make that happen. Is there a bug?

Another problem: as soon as I change the color on the palette, the whole tool changes color. It doesn’t wait for me to click ‘fillObject’. But sometimes I want to paint only part of the object. How do I do that?

Lastly, how do I sample an existing color?

#2

to sample a color “c” (this samples the color without any lighting/shading info)

to swap between your main and sub colors “v”

you need to have
tool>texture>colorize
turned on in order for your polypaint to show.

You also need to color>fillobject in order to set a base color for your polypaint (this will turn colorize on) then you can select a new color to start poly painting

If you turn colorize off, you have to turn it back on to see the polypaint again.

I hope this helps, any more questions just ask.
