Hollow ZBrush Model

How do I make a ZBrush model hollow(in ZBrush not Maya, etc.) to decrease the cost of printing? I need a hollow interior cavity that is part of the outer mesh. Lots of vague or incomplete suggestions all over the internet. Unfortunately nothing specific to ZBrush. Suggestions are highly appreciated.

I plan on printing the model in pieces, but the warthog body and base need to be hollow or the price is simply too high.

play with the smoothing settings until you get what you want.

Thanks. Unfortunately I already tried that and I’m having trouble getting the poly count low enough (for Shapeways server) on the extraction with Decimation Master.
