ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi, i’ve already everything tried.
I want create an Indentation exactly like a Grouploop-Identation, but with curve and also with sharpe Edges of a Grouploop, and as most important: As sololine. But Grouploops create in all edgesites loops!
How i can create a similar Indentation with a similar Shape like a Grouploop but as Sololine?

I’ve it tried on this extractboots of a Humanmodel with a own Alpha, but this works not really good, and not so clean like a Grouploop-Indentation:

Also with CurveBrush i’ve tried. All Nothing!

The Thing is: Later i want create also Grouploops, and this Grouploops must be then exactly simliar, like this one Solo-Indentation.

You’ll need to take your mesh density into consideration. The more points you have to work with, the smoother it will be.
The UI is hacked off in your images so we can’t tell what the point count is or if you have ZB4R6P2. Displaying wireframes is also helpful.

That can’t be the Problem. I see more Problem in the Kind of create this Wish what i want.
I’ve tried in all Shapes; with Dynamesh, highresolution, lowresolution, and with Divide. And with many Solutions to create this Lines what i want.
But is not this the Problem, not the Resolution. The Problem is, to create a similar Shape like the Grouploops engravininglines, with sharp Edges and also with Curves, when i want this engravininglines also have in curves form.

This are Grouploops-Lines (engravinglines):

But i want just one, one engravingline like a Grouploop-Lines.
And the Problem: I want exactly the same Shapes engravinline like a Grouploop-engravinglines, but just as soloengravingline.
But also with this sharpness of this Grouplooplines.

And the other Thing is also: The Border of the Boots make Problem, when i want with a Brush try to create this engravining lines (check me Images).

Ok, i believe now there exist no solution, just the good old Handwork with Dam_Brush, Pinch Brush, Polish and this same brushes.
I thing my Problem was also to set dynamesh with the Button [Polygroups] on. With this choice dynamesh have closed my Boots.
With [Polygroups] off Button, no! I don’t no why hm

Thanks anyway for the help.
