@bakedbeings 2 года назад

You can add some pinch to that paint+scultpris brush, saves you the some of the straightening work. Also that quick retopo during concepting can get you more than enough edge flow to get details in with fewer subdivs. Danny Mac 3D (not me heh) uses it really well. PS ZModeler with duped brushes for edge bridge, collapse etc can do that adjustment work quite well too 👌

Paul is advertising Z21 with new Zmodeler abilities as a retopo solution... would love to see your take on that and maybe some tips. I personally think I'll stick to quad tool in maya and havent really got the time to give it a shot, but if this is really a viable solution to stay in zbrush between concept and texturing.... that could be a game-changer

@vectorcrocodile5160 3 года назад

One thing a lot of non artists don't seem to get (and some actual artists) is that there are many levels between stylized and realism. You have full stylized like Loony tunes Elmer Fud and then you have full realism like some Cg scene in live action movie. Then you have in between like say Street Fighter or Tekken (Tekken being a little closer to realism but still quite stylized) there are many levels in between towards each direction.

@joeweidenbach9757 3 года назад

I am curious, with the updates to the zModeler that came into 2021, how that would affect your view on the retopo process you're showing here (since at least what I'm seeing in the videos is roughly equivalent to quad draw now). I should also preface that by saying, I'm not a modeler/sculptor at all (I'm a Creature TD), but it looks really promising as a workflow. Really great series though.

All good but in the texturing phase is there gonna be conflict of hair strands overlapping with the scalp base cap which u have made to base the hairs on ? I always get till 35:22 phase then i dunno what to keep and what to discard. I wish i could share my model with you lol to explain what i mean.

@MenchisMenagerie 2 года назад

I'm not sure if I'll get an answer here but I'll try asking at least. If I was making something like this and my goal was to fully retop and prepare it for animation, would you retop the hair seperately and keep it as a seperate object even up to the rigging stage or would you retop it all together as one single piece? I had a very hard time finding a definite answer for this and with how knowledgable you guys are you seem the best ones to ask.

@beanlightgames 3 года назад

I see the sculpt was recorded before 2021 was released, but was the audio recorded before diving too deep into the new tools in ZModeler? The tools, while still not as good as Maya or TopoGun, are significantly better and more reliable than fixing a ZRemeshed mesh. I'd also recommend, specifically for Zbrush 2020, using the Topology Brush for the brows and lashes. It's not great for full retopology, but for making very quick, clean topology for instances like that. This did get replaced for me in 2021 with the introduction to ZModeler Edge Extrusion and Dynamic Thickness. Other than those quick things, I rly enjoyed the vid! I was just about done with making hair Zbrush and almost dropped it completely for Blender, but I definitely want to give these methods a shot!

Thank you for the video, time and effort. I wanted to ask something. I've downloaded some RDR2 character model rips and I want to 3D print them, but, as you may guess, the hair is just clumps of "confetti paper" with tga mask textures applied to it, and it wouldn't print alright. Is there any method to use this data to recreate the hair or should I just scrap it and make a new model for it? What would be the best approach if the priority is "accuracy" to the source? Any opinion is appreciated, so feel free to chime in, everybody. Thank you.

@@iamlazy7281 Ok so what I was referring to directly was how do you create those curves for the hair like that and then retopo perfectly between the edges with little trouble? I have difficulty getting a tight retopo that looks exactly like the detail of the base mesh even with Shrinkwrap like with shrinkwrap sometimes it sets in too far into the head. Is there a cleaner way to get more highly detailed topology for small things on the head like this? Also when you say Bake the HP Map onto the low Poly I presume you mean do the sculpt, bake the normals of the sculpt use the normals for the low poly mesh. Like am I supposed to get every ridge nook and cranny when I retopo? or is Normal map bakes from high poly onto low poly that's supposed to do the lifting

@Koupoable 3 года назад

With Polyquilt (mostly for the AMAZING relax feature) and F2 addons (and some knowledge of blender I guess) retopo in blender is more than decent, I only do retopology with these tools and that's fast and easy to use, almost on par with maya's tool imo, but free. Plus you can transfer meshes between zbrush and blender with one click with GoB addon. :)

@linush2331 3 года назад

Having mainly used Blender for retopo, I can say that it is almost there, but not quite. The main things holding it back is that you can click through the high poly and accidentally select the backfaces of the retopo, and that there is no good way to make the low poly seethrough. There are also a LOT of small quality of life things needed. It's SO CLOSE to being amazing, but fundamentally Blender needs first party tools, because the amazing community addons are all really nice, but broken and prone to crashing. Like many things in Blender, I love the idea of it, but it feels unfinished, and doesn't quite work well enough for production. You can stitch together a half-decent retopo suite from addons, but it tears at the seams constantly. Soon though, I think it's gonna be great! Just not yet.

@Koupoable 3 года назад

@@linush2331 I agree about the seethrough and select aspects of the retopo process, that's indeed really annoying, I still think you can do retopo just as fast as any other software if not faster with the right tools and some practice. It's important to say for people that don't want to buy a software only for retopo. SpeedRetopo addon can help with the visibility and offers a fast setup and nice shortcuts, just got updated for 2.9 too.

The game industry uses a variety of techniques, but I think that the most common one is just to use strands of hairs, so flat planes (with some topology, obviously) on which you project your textures. Then, each plane is given physics so that they can move and collide realistically.

If you want good topology you better off with creating one beforehand and skinwrap it over the sculpt. As for brows - you can basically sculpt them and then project onto the face, no need all this fiddly manipulations.
