ZRemesher 3.0 - DetectEdges
Let's familiarize ourselves a little better with ZRemesher's DetectEdges functionality. In this Lesson example, we'll take a gear model that has a triangulated mesh with no PolyGroups or no mesh ID, but has edges to help utilize the DetectEdges function. Once DetectEdges is activated, we can convert our mesh to quad based geometry, create PolyGroups, and most importantly retain our clean or hard edges. This function can assist with future mesh editing including Dividing and sculpting or features that utilize PolyGroups.ZRemesher 3.0 -...

QuickSketch 2014
Hello,
I've decided to kickstart my old QuickSketch thread by putting up a couple of recent experiments.
Everything was done in ZBrush, except a levels tweak in Photoshop.
The process mainly involved the use of alpha masking, alpha brushes, custom insert mesh shapes) and colour layers projected onto the QuickSketch plane.
The female head was an old sketch bust with very bad polypaint

ShellacThank you for your kind words Acmepixel. I will endeavour to keep this thread more active. It was both frustrating and rewarding not to rely on Photoshop. Cheers, Neil09-28-14

ShellacThank you for your kind comments BlackMath. Yeah, I totally agree with your sentiments. I'd love to see a bit more illustration on this forum. I'm working towards more of a hybrid approach in my images. Don't get me wrong, I love the sculpture...09-29-14

Been away for a while
I've been away from this thread for far too long.
I've spent the week shaking off creative inertia.
The following images continue my QuickSketch mash up experiments (now in colour).
I'm trying to incorporate some unfinished sculpts into my artwork.
We'll see how it goes.
The last two are work in progress.
Cheers,
Neil

Still playing with Quicksketch...
... and I've been neglecting my thread.
I'm still trying new workflows and techniques.
Another black and white sketch.
I'll eventually move into colour.

Shellac's ZBrush Miscellanea
Hi,
My name is Neil and I've been a long time lurker at ZBrush Central.
I've finally plucked up a bit of courage and start a thread.
I've decided to start with some recent 2d/3d experiments within Quicksketch.
Thank you in advance for any interest and feel free to ask any questions.
Cheers !,
Neil
