ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi All

I`m creating a game level in a 17th century mansion and I want to create something like the photo below in zbrush.
Any suggestions on how to create something like that? It doesnt need to be an exact copy but along those lines.
I have alot of work to do on this so i need something thats quick to do, and as its not going to be visible close up it
doesnt have to be massively detailed. Thinking perhaps grabbing a heightmap from crazybump of the source material and trying to work with it. Any ideas? Thanks

There are no short cuts if you’ll see it closely but since you’re going to see it from a distance, I would recommend gnomonlogy zbrush relesead tutorial. It’s name is “How to use photos as displacement in ZBrush”. I hope it helps.
