I've rewatched this video pretty much every month. This video always inspires me to sculpt without symmetry and practice figure posing. Thank you for posting this study and other studies as well!

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! Really glad it inspired you to keep practicing! All the best

[@balenwalker8209]

nice dude, didn't even see who the uploader was until the end. Nice to see your stuff again!

[@FynnGB]

Appreciate you stopping by again! Things are settling down a bit and hopefully I can do more stuff here again soon

[@balenwalker8209]

@@FynnGB awesome to hear. Your timelapses really bridged a disconnect with face sculpting for me. Always appreciative regardless.

[@feizai245]

Do you Unify before your sculpt?

[@ayan4697]

I love your clay brush! Can you please share it to us? It seems somehow different to the default one in Zbrush.

[@FynnGB]

It's actually the default clay brush (not the clayBuildup one). The rest is just a matter of brush size and pen pressure. I usually like to have a much bigger brush size than the stroke that I want to have and then have light pressure. This averages out the effect of the volume buildup across a larger surface area. All the best

[@rodneyabrett]

Came out great. What would you say was the total time spend on it?

[@FynnGB]

Thank you! Around 2 hours plus the time for setting up the render

[@shanyi0610]

I'm still practicing to be able to sculpt like you. Can you give me some advice about fabrics? Do you use basic brushes or do you have a special brush?

[@FynnGB]

Thanks I appreciate it! Too be honest I'm not too confident in sculpting clothing but good references are key for practicing! I stick with the basic brushes (heavy on the default standard brush) and try to let the brushstrokes follow the flow of the fabric. Don't shy away to mask off some areas and use the move brush to create overlaps as well. If the details get sharper just use the standard brush with a smaller radius and you should be good to go All the best with your practice!

wow

[@biriani2855]

That looks amazing. What tablet do you use?

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! I'm using a huion kamvas 13 pro which I really like

[@biriani2855]

@@FynnGB Do you use the screen? For some reason it hurts my neck

[@FynnGB]

@@biriani2855 Actually I don't, most of the time. I do use the stand as I find it more comfortable for my wrist and I have a mount for my monitors so I look straight at it

[@adam551982]

Still cant believe you can do this without symmetry.

[@FynnGB]

I thought I could't until I tried it haha. Asymmetry is daunting but quite liberating as well as long as you don't expect the same results as you get with symmetry
