[@inaseni7464]

hehe, thanks, what I love most it is your calming down tone and slow way of showing steps, super, helped me a lot.

[@waterbergice3440]

hhhh,Last time I search how to make money as an artist, and Mr.Mike gave me answer. This time I search how to load reference images, Mr.Mike gave me answer again. Great tutorials! Thank you!

[@renanmagalhaesneves9178]

I'm begining. Thx, Mike, for the content. You're really helping me, man.

[@danganronpav344]

Thank you! I finally solved the spotlight projection problem! Very helpful!

[@Sha6955]

You make it nice and easy! Thank you

[@jamesick]

a good alternative to this would be using the PureRef program, loading in a single image and setting the mode to keep on top of all windows. same effect, multiple uses, potentially easier. hope this helps.

Quick tip for anyone who might need it: You can hide and show the spotlight image/tool by pressing shift+z

Question: is it possible to make the reference material “zoom in’ in tandem with zooming in on the model?

[@blendernoob64]

Hi there, For some reason my spotlight dial doesn't show tooltips when I mouse over it. Is there a spotlight settings menu or button I can use to fix this? I'm using Zbrush 2023 btw

hey mike great you rlare upgrading your knowledge 😉 please make a video for maya to zbrush workflow regarding low poly mesh in maya and high detailed sculpting in zbrush using alphas and brushes

[@MHTutorials3D]

[@randomstuff6094]

but you cant use brushes like smoothing and other brushes, you have to turn spotlight off which is pretty useless i need to see the reference image to make changes.

[@ricardobrites8141]
