Your First Day in ZBrush is tailored for complete beginners, with no prior knowledge of ZBrush or 3D modeling required. Through step-by-step lessons, you’ll learn the essential tools and techniques to design, sculpt, and detail a 3D character. Along the way, we’ll explore the ZBrush interface, break down the sculpting process, and introduce you to the key features that will allow you to create a fully-realized character. The best part? You’ll do all of this while working on an exciting character project, giving you a practical, hands-on experience from start to finish!

This course will focus on the creation of a character, so you’ll be able to see how ZBrush fits into the character design pipeline, from initial concept to final sculpt. By the end of the course, you’ll have a deep understanding of ZBrush and a solid grasp of the fundamentals of 3D character creation.

We’ll also cover essential tools and techniques that are crucial for effective sculpting in ZBrush. I’ll start by introducing Brushes. Then we will see how Subtool tab helps us in every step of character creation process. We’ll also dive into Dynamesh, a core feature that allows you to easily remesh your model during the sculpting process without worrying about topology. Understanding Masks will be key to controlling and refining specific areas of your model while you work on other parts. You will also learn how to create and use Polygroups, which help in organizing and isolating parts of your model for more precise edits.
