ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

ive been trying to find a way to get different textures or even materials to appear on one model: i.e- for the skin and eyes and even for a sheen on the lips, and i stumbled across this tutorial.

http://www.3dlinks.com/oldsite/tutorials/ZBrushWorkShop-5.cfm

I gave the layer method a try, but its not really doing anything- appending an eye onto the model just makes it appear on the same layer as the others and they all use the same skin whatever i choose… is this no longer a usable method for the current version of zbrush or am i not doing something right? Otherwise, are there any other methods of getting skin, eyes and other features to have a different look to them?

hey there have u tried this:

  1. in edit mode select the subtool or object u want to color
  2. select the material and color u want to use
  3. in the top menu bar select color then click on the “fill object” tab
    (also before doing this make sure that the “MRGB” button is selected, this is
    on the same row as the “move” “rotate” and “scale” buttons)
  4. ur object should now be colored, select the next subtool to color and
    repeat the process.
    ----hope this helps----
