Eyebrows How?

Hi! First post for me.
I´m just starting out with Zbrush and i have been playing around with it and it´s an extremely stimulating tool!
I have searched for a tutorial, (or similar) that can tell me how to make god eyebrows in Zbrush. Can anyone help me here?

Advice of any sort would be great, thanks!

There are a few approaches that you could use. Here are some possibilities:

  1. Sculpt the eyebrows into the geometry of a high resolution model. You can use Projection Master for this, and paint the texture at the same time.

  2. Apply a fibers material to those parts of the model and edit the properties so that when you do a Best render (with Render>Fibers turned on), the eyebrows grow.

  3. Create your model without eyebrows. Drop it to the canvas in the position that you want for your scene. Get all the lighting and everything just the way you want and do a best render. Bake the scene to freeze the lighting. Now use the Fibers brush with the FlatColor material to paint eyebrow fibers on. You can then use the Blur or Smudge brushes to edit them. This usually works best for fur, but you can also get really good results for other hair.

  4. Rather than using Fibers, just use a 2D brush and an appropriate alpha to paint the eyebrows as part of your post-render work.

I will definitly try that!
I discovered how to use the deco brush and that works really well to.
