Smoothing Adaptive Skin from ZSpheres

wildduck · February 5, 2011, 3:19am

Hi,

I am currently doing the “NO more wine” tutorial (great one btw !) with ZBrush 4, but i have troubles to get the same result as the artist with adaptiv skin.

If i don’t touch any options, the default adaptive skin is really not smooth and the tentacles are unusable :

The options “Ires”, “Mbr” or others of the Adaptive skin panel did not help that much

So i’d like to know what is the good use of Adaptive skin to get the same result as the tutorial, something smooth and closer to the ZSphere structure.

Thanks !

You don’t have enough zspheres in the claw. Watch the video a little closer.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, but im not sure this is the answer to my problem.

If i had more Zsphere like in the video, i get something even more weird ^^:

Hey finally i managed to do it after several times trying to copy yours, i still don’t get why sometimes it works and sometimes no, but now i know it’s a lack of knowledge and not an option to turn ^^

Thanks a lot for your time !
