This is really frustrating [Answered]

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

I never thought that Zbrush will be so frustrating. I am trying from from to late at the nights, to model a simple human head. I end up with…nothing, i cant sculpt it, i have tried with DynaMesh,Sphere or i even put a image plane in Zbrush, half of day i spend it with setting up image planes.

i also tried from tutorials from different sites, but they are too fast or don’t cover something.

How to try and learn Zbrush? I am very new to 3D, and i don’t have any traditional background

My goal is to be character modeler and texture artist.

In the Documentation folder of your ZBrush installation you’ll find a PDF file called ZBrush_Starting_guide.pdf. If you read that it will give you a good understanding of how ZBrush works. Chapter 9 is a simple tutorial for building a 3D model. Once you know the basics you’ll find it much easier to work on a project of your own.

I guess, try to take it slow, be patient and don’t give up.
Maybe try traditional modeling or painig. That will help you understand the form.

Take litle steps and you will move forward. Learn basics first and get your self a tablet if you don’;t have one yet.

Well, i have bamboo tablet.I brought it just for this. From the basic, like tools and UI?

Yes, marcus gave you good direction. Also if you are not somehow experienced with 3d, try the traditional modeling too. There are many tutorials on that, and that will help you understend modeling more and with that will come more idea about sculpting.
