Summary

ZBrush, the flagship product of Pixologic, provides multiple features such as digital sculpting application and painting tools for artists and commercial customers. The software involves a potent rendering engine which provides high-quality and seamless integration for workflow efficiency. ZBrush offers a common graphics card, which helps in designing multiple 3D creative impressions. ZBrush is widely used in media & entertainment and gaming studios and supports various operating systems such as Window XP, Vista, and Mac OS.

ZBrush features enable a user to use customized brushes to shape, texture, and paint virtual clay in a real-time environment. It increases efficiency with its new folder organization system, a written automatic retopology tool, and a new camera system.

 

Non-Photorealistic Rendering (NPR): This feature helps add overlaying textures, apply a halftone printed paper style, and apply several built-in presets or draw an outline around a 3D model.

Snapshot3D: A user can convert any gray-scale image (alpha) to a 3D model by using a Snapshot3D feature.

ZRemesher v3.0: This feature can detect sharp surface angles and can thus be used for the creation of mechanical models.

Folders: Using this feature, it is possible to apply actions such as Move, Scale, Rotate, Duplicate, Delete, Hide/Show PolyPaint, and Live Boolean to all contained meshes at once.

Universal Camera: The ZBrush Universal Camera provides complete control over the Focal Length and Crop Factor. It allows a user to undo and redo camera movements. A user can also save various camera settings, making it easier to find the perfect final composition.

Intersection Masker: The Intersection Masker plugin allows a user to create a mask where geometry islands intersect on a selected SubTool. It is an easy-to-use solution for creating complex masks.

ZColor: The ZColor plugin features a set palette of colors. ZColor files help create an organized look of projects and can be shared with others.

“Real sculpting experience”

I love the Zbrush Dynamesh which gives the real sculpting experience. The user can use it in the way they want by taking it from the low resolution to high resolution while Dynamesh is active.

“Customize it to enjoy it to the fullest.”

Its versatility in terms of styles that you can create is amazing, for instance, I can work on something incredibly formal as well as something for a much younger audience. Zbrush lets me do all of it. I would recommend other simpler software for someone who is just beginning in the field of 3D animation, but otherwise, it is great since you can find tutorials to learn from.

“Have seen amazing improvement in workflow.”

For someone with a background in sculpting, like me, Zbrush is just so fun since it names brushes as per traditional sculpting. This means I know and understand exactly which brush to use for which function. It saves me the time of scrolling and picking tools. I would suggest, however, that you use an external renderer if you’re a stickler. Otherwise, this seems perfect since it gives you a high level of control over brush usage.
