I would like to learn how to make a 3D model of a character using this program called zBrush. It is a 2.5D and 3D modelling and texturing program. Some of these models were used in games such as “Gears of Wars” and movies such as the movie “Incredible Hulk”. I would love to model mythological creatures and ofcause i do this just for the fun of it.

Here is an introduction towards zbrush.

Its ability to sculpt up to a billion polygons, ZBrush allows you to create limited only by your imagination.



This program has the ability to create 3D models, 2D images and 2.5D Pixols in a very unique way. Every each of this tools in zbrush are able to help you in creating or sculpting a 3D models or 2.5d Pixols. 2.5d Pixols are for example a picture that has 3D elements on it.
