    Briefly go over the zBrush UI and getting familiar with where things can be found. Learn how to customize the UI, how to save your custom UI and how to load a custom UI. I also share with you my custom UI which I will be using for the rest of this course.

Requirements

  • This course starts as if it is your first time opening zBrush.

Description

Do you want to create 3D printable tabletop miniatures? Did you just pick up zBrush to do so?
Then this course is for you!

This course assumes no prior knowledge in zBrush and starts from the beginning, aiming to give you a basic foundation to build upon.

Other beginner level zBrush courses are often not aimed at 3D printing tabletop miniatures as the end product. Because of that they may cover things that may not be of use to you, and may skip teaching things that are required when exporting models for 3D printing.

My goal is to create a simple and easy to follow beginner level course. I want you to experience an early victory of holding your own 3D printed miniature in your hand to feel more motivated about continuing your journey of learning zBrush.

In the first section I will launch zBrush with you for the first time together, and show you how to quickly get into edit mode to start playing with digital clay. Then I will show you how to customize your UI to better follow the rest of the course. In the next section I go through the various tools and functions we will be using most. And finally I will show you the entire process start to finish of creating a simple target dummy miniature for 3D printing. 

And as an added bonus to students of this course, I have created a Discord group you can join to share progress and ask for feedback or for help.

No risk: If this course ends up being not what you expected there is always a 30-day money-back guarantee. No questions asked!

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who wants to start sculpting their own 3D printable miniatures using zBrush.
