ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hey guys I am in need of great help. I have just recently Bought Zbrush 4r4. I am currently wanting to learn to model in Zbrush. My current project is a Male Human skeleton however I am having great difficulties making the Vertebrae Spine I know since I am new I am unaware of all the great tools available to make it happen but maybe some of you could show me or explained how I could achieve the model of the spine. I have also tried the Ryan Kingsley Style but I am very unsatisfied wit its look.

I hope some one out there could maybe demonstrate it via a video ( doesn’t need to be voiced) just a demonstration and written explanation thank you.

I would greatly appreciate it.:b2:

This is a Hard Question to answer… there are sooooo many different ways you could start. you could use Shadow box and make your base there, you could start off with a sphere and move and shape it into what you want. or use zspheres. if youre just starting off with zbrush i would suggest you start off with something a lot less complicated. watch tutorials on youtube. hit up amazon and find some books.

I am part of cg peers an downloaded many basic tutorial which I have gone through but when it come to the skeleton oh dear it becomes a mess but I stayed up all night trying to figure it out and realized ohhh I could have done the Sternum and Vertebrae shape via a Zsphere then use Tube Curve to shoot the ribs out and as for the spine I could create 1 of the Lumbard 1 of the Thoracic and 1 of the cervical and the create a curve to duplicate them ^^ :smiley:
