I personally find it easier to start with many separate objects for the base mesh (neck, head, shoulders, trunk, hips, thigh, etc.). But everyone has their own workflow that works for them and they all think their way is the only correct way lol. You can take a million different approaches depending on your style and skill and that's the beauty of blender. Looks great man, keep it up!

I use shapelab to sculpt in VR. There isnt as many tools but I've been able to make some great stuff with it, and you can always edit the model further by importing it into blender
@JacobKinsley2 жыл бұрын
It's also so so so important to make your base mesh do half the sculpting work for you already. The skin modifier is great for that and gives you great topology + a free armature.

Good tip!
@macnavi Жыл бұрын
Great information! I didn’t know about the Dyntopo. Tip for Mac users: you can use your iPad (recent models) and an Apple Pencil to use your iPad as a second screen and move Blender to it, to sculpt with the pen on your iPad.
@zoltanrobertlovas46722 жыл бұрын
I think you totally missed the "block out that shit" part. You know, where you make your base mesh at least relatively the same size and shape as what you want to sculpt, saves a lot of time and makes a lot of things easier.
