A ZBrush training channel by Seán Forsyth. This channel is about both beginners introductory videos, and tips for more intermediate to advanced users.
I've created playlists to organize them a bit. So "ZBrush Issues" will cover all those strange things to happen to new users which frustrate their experience, where as "ZBrush Training" is the place to get tips and tutorials. The rest are self-explanatory.
I started this channel as I teach ZBrush a few different places and thought it would be good to have a source of my own material I can refer to when students ask about a certain topic or how to do a certain thing. The class environment is all well and good, but it's always good to be able to return at a later time and review something or go over it again if it's been a while since you learned something.
Anyway, hope you learn something and can use it. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments and I'll do my best to answer them.
Enjoy ZBrushing!

Thank you soooooooooo much!!!!! i was suffering
Glad it helped!
Thanks! amazing
You're welcome!
hi Sean, I hope you can help me with this, I modeled a character and then made some changes in the document size...after that, I can't see my model centered and the zoom is not working correctly, I mean, it looks too small and when I zoom in, it changes the size dramatically and I loose the model from the center. *Frame command doesn't help...thanks
Sure thing. It sounds like maybe your document is just a little messed up. To fix it, just go to your Documents menu and make sure "WSize" is on before hitting New Document. This will prompt you to save, just say No to this, as you don't want to save this. Effectively you now have a new clean document automatically sized to your viewport, and you'll notice in the subtool palette that your latest tool is still there and ready to be drawn out onto the document again. Do that, hit T to go back into Edit mode and you should be back in business. Hope this helps!
@@SeanForsythTutorials hi, thank you for your answer. I do all of this but when I set the new document I see the model, I try to zoom it and it goes so far..then I ZOOM it to see it closer and it disappears, what could be?
@@ilustradsn Oh, never use the Zoom button! That's zooming your entire document in and out. Use Zoom3D instead. It's the button above Rotate. Or better still, use the shortcut keys to zoom. czcams.com/video/1EHzELXRcKQ/video.html
@@SeanForsythTutorials yes thank you, so I don’t know if I can fix it now after zooming the document with that one
Yes you can, just do the first thing i said and it'll fix it.
Most informative video ❤
Glad it helps!
I love you
Glad it helped!
Really clever Thanks
You're very welcome!
What do you do when you have a part masked and you want to move? It seems that it still deforms the masked pieces while preserving all un-masked ones...
If you have the piece masked the Move tool will always move the unmasked areas only. No way around this that I know of. The behaviour should be the opposite of what you describe though, it should only ever move unmasked areas.
@@SeanForsythTutorials I may not have explained it properly: I have a subtool made of merged pieces. Some masked entirely, some un-masked entirely, and some - masked partially. 100% masked and unmasked pieces behave as expected. The partially masked parts behave as if there is still stretching working. Not sure if there isn't something like simulations like cloth, gravity etc. still affecting it. But I can't seem to turn it off like it was the original move
How do you make the turntable go around the base center axis? I've been playing with the settings, even selected the base at its center and still when it spins is way off.
So I usually go to ZPlugin, and under Scale Master, hit ZBrush Scale Unify to make sure the scene is in the centre and scaled in a way ZBrush likes. After that, as an idea, you could possibly create a cylinder off screen somewhere above or below your model, make it larger than your scene, and it should use that as the basis for the centre. So you could in theory move it from side to side if necessary until you get the centre you want. Dunno, just an idea!
@@SeanForsythTutorials I usually work without the "floor" active. To many distracting things. But I finally managed to get it to work. I did a multi selection for the subtools then activate the floor and move the whole subs to fit the center then tested the turntable. Works perfectly. Thanks.
@rosumparat Great, glad you got it working. And thanks for posting your solution for others to see.
@@SeanForsythTutorials No problem. The more we learn the more we share.
would help beginners if you mention the shortcut keys used
Yeah, apologies, looking back at it now I can see that. This was more just an overview of ways to do it, but I agree I should have included shortcut keys used. If you have specific questions maybe I can answer them for you though.
Awesome man
Glad you liked it!
why not chose UE5 unpacked?
Yep, that's pretty much the same, in fact it saves you having to turn off Emmissive if you're not using it. Thanks for mentioning it.
That was very useful, I recently realized to my horror theres an army of fast shaders lurking in my material palette, this solved the problem.
Yeah it's very annoying. Glad it helped!
I love you man!
Ha, ha, cheers!

The best thing about 2.5 is to know how to get out of it. Another thing that I love from 2.5 is that the hotkey is SHIFT-S...pretty close to Ctrl-S..that is what you do in Z-Brush every 10 seconds due to the crashing nature of the software. Why don't they hid this mode from HELL where they hid all the important features likes close holes? I mean...in the middle of NOWHERE that takes you 5 hours to find them in th endless Z-Brush menues and options?
Yep, it's not ideal, and one of the first thing I teach my students is to remap the shortcut Shift + S to avoid this confusion. Saves a hundred questions/problems down the line.
thank you Maestro
You're very welcome!
well... well... THERES A BUG ON ZBRUSH, WHICH AUTOMATICALLY EXIST, IM TOTALLY TIRED, PLS, TELL THIS TO ZBRUSH, OR I WILL GONNA START TO BE ANGRY, IT MOSTLY HAPPENS TO ME, PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS TELL THIS TO ZBRUSH, SO I WILL NOT GONNA BE ANGRY 😠😠😠😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 (btw, i use zbrush 2021 tho)

Increased the model size and dynamesh keep giving me a low res result
Yeah, they appear to have changed how things work and this functionality is now broken.
@@SeanForsythTutorials I guess it has something to do with the Maxon era. This issue breaks all my details, a real deal breaker
@@hgsupertramp Ah they broke it before then when they introduced the white dot which was supposed to help auto calculate resolution, but does a terrible job.
@@SeanForsythTutorials this is really something they should fix and get back. I have wrote emails. so hope others do light up the problem so they fix this issue
Agreed. But let's just say neither Pixologic nor Maxon are famous for listening to their users.
how can i deactivate the color without have to go on the menu? the icon beside the eye, I know there is a shortkey for that but I couldn't find it anywhere
I'm unaware of a shortcut key for this unfortunately.
