[@gokux7856]

Amigos! Your tutorials have been like my very own library of zbrush knowledge !! I’ve literally learnt it from scratch following your tutorials !!! This is another awesome tutorial!!

[@ashchan30]

This was AWESOME! I tried looking EVERYWHERE for a solution and couldn't find it! Not even on ask Zbrush...they had a "Bridge Two Cylinders" video but it was for low poly models. Thanks a bunch!

[@artacopia]

Exactly what I needed!! Thanx for all your info and honesty.

[@Dumbanana00]

[@BarbaNeggra]

THANK YOU!!

[@meganfisher831]

And just like that my standing problem was solved. Thank you SO much. What you don't learn in college, am I right?

[@sierraecho884]

One essential tool was not shown here. How do I fill a hole where the filled portion follows the curvature of the surrounding geometry. Taken the head as an example, it has a domed shape, if I fill hole with the regular tool the fill is simply straight. So how would I do that with a curve ? This si extremely important for 3D scan cleanup.

[@rudevectors8018]

Jebus HC! That's flipping (Normals) brilliant, why didn't I know about this feature... instead of the will power sucking tedium of snapping vertex/edges to a second mesh that wasn't initially designed to match the first, in order to get that perfect seam.

[@FlippedNormals]

Thanks! Its a pretty nifty way of doing it. (also nice pun)

[@Altarior]

[@jessemorton3909]

Thanks.

[@monikagajewska_art]

Thank you for this video. Great stuff! But please can somebody help me and tell me how can I get rid of this curve after I am done? Desperate clicking everywhere, on the model, on the Polygroup, outside the model ... nothing works .. it is still there :/

[@gentlem8247]

I witnessed a miracle

[@supriyobiswas6313]

can we do with keeping both low subdivision and high subdivision ?

[@kennethmarvel8652]

Hi guys i did as you said. But the two edges wont connect i have a hollow cylinder with an inner a shell. I sliced it. And i just want the inner and outer edges to join but nothing happens when i try dynamesh it fills in everything can you help please ?

[@art.game.forever5067]

Hi I don't have this brush in my brushes What is your version of zbrush? or where can I find the Curve Bridge tool?

[@meganfisher831]

Me: Okay I think I got the hang of zbrush, this sculpt is pretty good. I think I'll just take off the head for now so I can work on this separate. It's a 20 year old advanced program basically so no biggy. There are lots of other programs to close- ... **14 hours later, completely finished ready for rigging and game production sculpt** ... I CANT ATTACH THE HEAD. **no tutorials are helping. Big epidemic of modelers with hilariously similar ideas, also with detached heads.** halp

[@4everLa2]

NIce! Thx!

[@FlippedNormals]

Cheers!

I've tried many times but I always get ugly stitches

[@ZenOfKursat]

some kind of bridges stitch fits flipped or wrong. what shall we do ? I have two subtool merged togather. both are similar one is scaled a little bit. and it stitch wrong corners. I closed mirror. I flipped normals tried to surround curve from various stroke directions, or zremesher didnt helped.

[@camilahamel4843]

ok, wait, I'm confused. I have been joining subtools by just merging them and then re-dynameshing. They fuse quickly and beautifully. You can keep sculpting on top as well, whereas the bridge tool involves extra steps. So...I need to do it with the bridge tool, why....?

[@darijozivkovic7931]

Can you make video about DynaMesh?

[@FlippedNormals]

Sure!

[@darijozivkovic7931]

Guys I love you two.
