Intro to ZBrush Part 3_by Michael P.

For updated Intro to ZBrush content (2020 and beyond), check out the ZBrush for Ideation course. This video will explain the difference between the two products:  But long story short, the Ideation series will be updated with new releases, these, while still containing relevant techniques and tools, will not. Also, many of your Intro needs may be covered by this free playlist from the Ideation series and the free content in my other playlists.

The final chapter in ZBrush fundamentals is here, weighing in at over seven and a half hours of instruction and 67 videos! There’s a huge range of topics covered in this part, from alpha brush creation, panel loops, ZModeler, polypainting, materials, textures, lighting, cameras, compositing, UVs, surface noise, layers, micro, nano, array, fiber mesh, and more, if you can believe it!

And just like the first two parts, we’ll wrap it up with some bonus videos covering the creation of the cover art for this section, utilizing everything we’ve learned up to this point. Sign in and become a ZBrush power user today!
