Year 2 – Week 8

Starter task – what is the difference between 3D modelling and 3D sculpting

3D modelling is the creating a model from scratch with no aid of pre-built meshes. Whereas sculpting is the warping and changing of a pre-built mesh to create a new one.

Zbrush learning

To set up Zbrush to create basic meshes you must first start by changing your brush to Zsphere. This allows you to create a basic sphere to begin with. Once that sphere has been made, enter edit mode and then you can begin working on adding to it. Pressing X will enable symmetry on the mesh. Once you have completed the basic mesh, enter sculpt mode and you can begin sculpting your mesh. there are many brushes, for example: the clay brush allows for mesh to be added to help elevate and add detail to your sculpt
