Module 2: Getting Started With Character Sculpting

Your mentor will now teach you how one should start his or her project from scratch. He will then proceed to explain to you different techniques to start your project in ZBrush. Firstly, you’ll learn to shape your character’s face using different tools in the software. Using a similar approach, students will be educated to build the bodies of their characters. Once you shape out your 3D character’s face and body, it will be time to add some details to its face and body. In particular, practicing Dynamesh will be the paramount subject to study.

Module 3: Enhancing the Appearance of the Character

With your face and body outlined perfectly, you will learn to add finishing touches to your character. This will include detailing the face, body, and hair. You will also learn to add colors according to your personality and the appearance of your character. Throughout the module, several brushes will be brought under utilization, and you’ll be briefed regarding each’s significance.

Module 4: Finishing & Rendering the Character

As the name suggests, a detailed discussion will be given for a quick rendering of your complete character sculpture. Apart from traditional software, the ZBrush’s rendering has several distinguished features. Many of these will include a brief introduction, whereas most of the BPR passes will be discussed in detail. All of these renders will then be imported into Adobe Photoshop for compositing. This process is done to achieve a rich and dynamic output.
