[Question] How can I sketch the High Detail Characers by using Dynamesh ?

#1

Hi everybody.

I’m still new with the Zbrush and now I wonder how others Artist can sketch the High Detail Characters just using the Dynamesh.

As I know that when we use Dynamesh feature to sketch, the parts of character must the same object so that i can use " Ctrl+ Drag " to generate a new Mesh and continue to sculpt.

But the Biggest problem come to me that’s i cant keep the High Detail ( after subdivide a couple times ) on the important parts like on the " Head/Face " - " Hands " - " Feet " and more… After " Ctrl+ Drag " again the detail that i try to make will lost ( like skin pores, winkles )

=> Somehow others Artist still can use Dynamesh and Keep the Highest Detail without Any problems on each parts.

P/s: Can you everybody guide me the way to do OR any technique so that i CAN keep the High Detail on Each Parts ( Head , Hands etc… ) when i using Dynamesh or something like that. Thanks so much and sorry for my bad English.

High detailing is not the purpose of Dynamesh. It is more for concepting and finding the right volumes and masses - basically you start with Dynamesh get the feel of the thing you are sculpting then use zremeshesh to retopologise it add more subdivisions and go into details.

So…that’s my mistake when i try to do that.
one more question.
Is there any ways that i can separate parts of the body ( like hands, head or feet… ) into subtool ( i think if i do that i can use dynamesh without problem ) then merge all of parts into 1 object without any problems ? ( like … seams or something )

P/s: exactly i mean to saperate then using Dynamesh on each parts and finally merge it into 1 shape object

Thanks vlad74
