These settings are global, so you change them for all brushes at once. By increasing this value the fur gets more volume, and if you lower it the fur will be tightly groomed to the body. This samples visible subtools and tries to groom the fur so that it's on top of those subtools. ZBrush developer Pixologic has solved this by adding a new feature to the Brush menu called Front Collision Tolerance. One issue that can arise is intersection between the growth mesh (the body, in this case) and the fur. Grooming in other 3D applications can be time-consuming. The grooming toolsīefore you start grooming, it's important to get an understanding of the grooming tools. I usually have this setting at 3 when rendering the final image, but 1 or 2 is good for test-rendering fur. Don't forget to change the SubPixel Antialiasing Render Quality to 1 or 2 to get rid of the jagged look of the fibres. Test rendering is a great way of getting a better representation of fur while working with your settings. Since there are quite a few settings for FiberMesh I won't go over each and every one, but you can use ZBrush's built-in documentation to get further information: just hover your mouse pointer over the setting and press Ctrl, and a small window with information text about the settings will be shown on your screen. However, you have procedural control over Root and Tip Anisotropic, Subdivisions, Sides and Radius. Be clear what settings you need before you start - they can't be changed after you hit the Accept button. The most important settings to get right when creating fur are MaxFibers, Coverage and Segments. There are a lot of functions and sliders in the FiberMesh settings. (In the process I removed the hotkey for Projection Master, which has the default hotkey Shift+G.) Repeat these steps for all limbs and desired polygroups. I've set Shift+G as a hotkey for this command.
Group visible polygons via Tool > Polygroups > Group Visible. You can also invert your visibility by Ctrl+Shift-clicking and dragging on the document outside the geometry. Use the Select Lasso brush ( Ctrl+Shift-click and drag) and set it to hide polygons ( Alt). Another great tool is the Select Lasso brush, which you can choose from the Brush menu. You can also grow and shrink visibility in Tool > Visibility (I've set hotkeys for this using + and -).
I’ve set it to H.Īdjust the visible polygons by masking, inverting the mask (click on the document) and hiding unmasked polygons. You can set this to a hotkey by holding Ctrl+Alt and clicking the button, and pressing a key on your keyboard. Hide the unmasked polys via Tool > Visibility > HidePt. Go down to the lowest subdivision ( Shift+D) and use masking with Transpose and/or the Mask Pen to mask a limb.
