![]() ![]() Because anything beyond a simple adequate tool (an intuos tablet in this case) isn't going to make a difference in the work produced. Simply press the button and move the mouse, and the currently selected light will move around the sculpture. And new artists are so eager for some little thing that will give them the upper hand, I constantly see people getting the best pro grade equipment possible and then being dissapointed when they're not improving. That's why I don't think it's good to say "OK you're new and just dropped some money, but the thing you got isn't good enough, you have to spend more money as soon as possible" I absolutely see the appeal of a display tablet (I have one at home, and use it for some tasks) but you really don't need one. The main point is, especially when we're commenting on a post from someone who is brand new - A more expensive piece of gear won't make you a better artist. New tools don't = better tools, every day world class artists are working with 18 year old gear. This step will decide the overall shapes and. For me, the base mesh is a very important part of the whole process as it creates the look and feel of the character. a drawing tablet, its all based on the user. I always make a base mesh for each new character, unless I have a tight deadline. Yeah you can use zbrush with just a mouse, I cant really give you an opinion on a mouse VS. A lot of them actually use the 2004 model Intuos 3 because of the hotkey layout. I decided to use a concept by Samuel Youn as a base for this project. This isn't even something to argue about, unless you have a transparent hand it's going to block your view of whatever small detail you're trying to mask when moving in the direction of your dominant hand. The idea that your hand blocks the screen isn't ridiculous, it literally does, you're putting it in front of the monitor that you're looking at. Being more vertical is erganomically worse and will cause shoulder strain faster than keeping your elbow at 45 degrees and working flat on a desk. The only difference is orientation, speaking of which that's another downside for the cintiq. You don't have more control - you're just moving your arm and wrist in both cases. It was $500 back than, but that works out to what? ~$50/year? Not too bad really.Even if you can get one for a reasonable price, it's silly to say that it's objectively better, it's a tool preference. its in the Stroke dropdown, you can only get to it in edit mode. Artists of any level, interested in learning from a master ZBrush sculptor, will learn myriad techniques both in technical workflows and informed design strategies. Pen pressure aside (its not 100 required I think), drawing curves with a mouse is really hurtful and bad for the wrists. In conclusion, Maarten sends the dragon to Keyshot for the final rendering of his finished digital sculpt. Pen Theres no pressure sensitivity with a mouse. ![]() I still use my Intuos Pro 3 that I purchased nearly 10 years ago. can’t find where to activate lazy mouse and adjust lazy mouse settings. I am using an old Wacom bamboo and the script will probably not work with the intous software but if anyone wants to see it i could post it. But I recommend starting with the entry level ones because of the lower cost of entry and dont waste your money on a monoprice or other non wacom tablet, they are an investment and if you've used a wacom than going to another tablet is like going to a pinto from a Ferrari. If you find yourself using the wacom heavily and really enjoying the workflow of ZBrush than you can always upgrade later to a fancier Intuos Pro or Cintique and sell your basic one on craigslist. Learn the ideal work methodology to sculpt a character from concept art. The company I work for requires that you have legal and legitimate copies of software to freelance and if you are dropping $800 on Zbrush anyways whats another 80? ![]() Because you do have to purchase it if you want to freelance. And you should think about as part of the total purchase cost of ZBrush if you don't already own it. You can get a standard intro level Intuos now for $80.00 and it works great! In fact that's what I recommend my students to do. But if I'm doing characters/organic modeling than I use a Wacom. In fact when I'm doing hard surface modeling in Zbrush I will often use the mouse because that workflow works just fine with it. The short answer is no you don't "have" to. I'm a professional 3D Artist and I teach 3D. ![]()
