Details details...

This might sound like a crazy question, but does anyone else here get stumped sometimes as to what details to add on a character? Like if you want to make a character really unique and detailed, but you struggle to think of what to add?

I guess I’m wondering if artists plan this at the design stage while drawing out the character, or do they just experiment once they import a base model in Zbrush?

most people do it in the design stage…but some people just run with it. All depends on how you work.

I agree with goast. I am not disciplined enough to completely finish reference sketches before diving headfirst into ZB. I am impatient to begin sculpting.

The downside is I am sometimes left staring at my sculpt, wanting to do “something”, but unsure of what to add next.

Invariably, I return to my sketches to test ideas prior to committing to any of them.

My workflow needs some refinement, admittedly.
