How to sculpt hair or fur in ZBrush

By Wacom |
October 14, 2016

Insun Kwon is Professor of Game Development at Savannah College of Art and Design in San Francisco. In the video below he is teaching us one way of sculpting hair or fur strands in ZBrush.
When sculpting hair, many people will choose to use alphas. But the professor of Game Development recommends doing it manually, as it won’t have the same values and therefore be more realistic and appealing to the audience. Using the masking tool and a selection of brushes, Kwon shows us how he designs a fur string on a rabbit.
Watch the video below for more.

🎨✨ Navigating license agreements as an artist can feel like a maze. Too often, we’re faced with contracts that lean heavily in favor of clients, leaving us with little protection. For artists like Zeynep Alpay, finding a way to make these agreements fair and transparent has been a true game changer. Now she can focus on what she does best, creating art, while the details are handled with Yuify.  🔒 Want to see how artists can truly protect their rights?
