Interesting ways to sculpt nose and ears, especially ears.

[@FynnGB]

thank you! Glad you like it

[@neshiah4747]

More of a Traditional method.

[@zozobra226]

dude's anatomy game is spot on.

[@FynnGB]

Thank you!

[@lukemathers7460]

@Trantor The Troll well, life is indeed a game, so anatomy can be called a game XD

[@abdullahdief1491]

Even after 2 years, i really like the way you apply your anatomical knowledge into your sculpting method. Amazing work man❤️

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! Glad you like it

[@solidsnakejake185]

Sculpting from a skull shape makes so much sense when you think about it

[@januszpolewski2910]

There is so much to learn here, just toggling through the frames. Thank you for the lessons! =)

[@waddahalbaini2445]

Hello you are polish I knew that from your name, modeling with max or rhino, hard surface modeling, is much more merciful...don't you agree?

[@kikec1225]

I had never seen anyone sculpting a face from a skull. Really impressive =)

[@TearThatRedFlagDown]

I find it interesting how you basically build the face up based on what's basically a skull. I'm gonna try this.

[@Snaaaaaaaaaaaaake]

This is beyond awesome, i love your works.

[@FynnGB]

Thank you :)

[@tulbezus5844]

One of the best head speed sculpt I have ever seen, wonderful video.

[@FynnGB]

Glad you like it, if you want to see the finished result you can check out the artstation link in the description :)

[@tulbezus5844]

Just saw it, came out very nicely! One question if I may since I tried to sculpt using your technique. Do you know some other techniques to make the eyelids? I always had struggled with the eyes so I tried to sculpt them as you did but after dynameshing / subdividing, I lost most of the shapes of the tarsal plates. Thank you and keep up the good work!

[@FynnGB]

You could try to use two half spheres in a seperate subtool to represent the upper and lower eyelids and when you're happy with it you can merge it with the rest of the head with dynamesh

[@tulbezus5844]

Oh thanks, I'll give it a shot. :)

[@jakefernandez9929]

+Fynn GB thank u!! Im looking for this specific comment about my problem on eyelid too 😊

[@Kholaslittlespot1]

I love it! Wish I could afford Zbrush. Stuck with blender for now but some of this still applies. Thanks.

[@almost_harmless]

Loved the game universe you picked a model from, but most of all your skills. 4 years now, and still lovely to see.

[@FynnGB]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@almost_harmless]

@@FynnGB Most welcome. It was easy and honest words. I am just starting out in ZBrush, after spending years as a graphic designer, so watching this helps a lot. I have always drawn freehand, so I understand the process better now that I have taken some classes as well.

[@FynnGB]

@@almost_harmless all the best to your journey!

[@ranga821]

Great to see a master at work, music is just a bonus.

[@FynnGB]

Thank you! I feel that I still have a long way ahead of me though!

[@_ssampa]

Fantastic tutorial! I have learnt so much about your workflow: I was using Dynamesh only for basic forms/base and then the Subdivision build up for all detail, but I find your aproach more sculptor-like working all with Dynamesh and only use Zremesher near the end, not worrying about topology during the process, really my style, thanks!

[@FynnGB]

I'm glad you found it helpful! I like to use the subdivision workflow once I start with the finer details like skinpores/wrinkles and always when I start using layers since the topology can't be changed anymore without loosing the layers All the best!

[@vieraanimation6720]

Great Sculpt, wish I could work as good as that too. I love that he start to model with the skull so you'll end up with proportionate anatomy with the head

[@chaNo121]

I learned and got a lot of new ideas just from this video! Im waiting to see more videos from you man, thanks!

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! Glad to hear that it was helpful!

[@lucasgaerthner2551]

very great methods! congrulations

[@idkwhatsgoinonrn]

absolutely brilliant, still relevant after 4 years

[@yusulfliu9850]

every time i watched it ,i would get some ideas!! hope to see more parts about yours!!

[@FynnGB]

thank you for your comment! :) I'm on it! There is not that much time right now since I'm pretty busy with work and university but I'm working on some stuff :)

[@js-ke8uo]

When you watch it , it looks soo easy, but when you try (result: it took me 3 days to do it, and the worst part it doesn't even look like this character 😭

[@happzy]

Mine ended up being a goat, I think...

[@lolftg5792]

lol - I've supposed the same 3 days for me, but didn't try yet - ty, Fynn for detailed video.

[@toku5829]

Dont worry try hard anything is possible in modeling u just need to practice

[@bearbones7913]

I'm currently stuck in this loop of working on models for too long but the one word of advice I could give is finish as many models as you can. They don't need to be complex just whatever you get done in an hour to a day is a big step in improving, same for drawing. Also good luck and keep up the hustle!

[@NathanielPennington]

I love this workflow man, keep bringing out more videos :P

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! I hope to get back to more videos soon! Work and my studies are very demanding at the moment but there are some videos planed :)

[@rosaline_womble]

Yay, I'm glad to see your videos again. I love these! ^_^

[@FynnGB]

Thanks Aquiel! :) I want to upload videos more frequently again!

[@n0b0dy_know]

Start from skull is amazing

[@tripleagent8135]

fynn your sculpting is the best, you're so adept at using zbrush features, im using other sculping software that I have licenses for but I think zbrush has some great features and you are really good at using those. cant afford zbrush at the moment .anyway your sculpts are an inspiration, keep it up man :D

[@FynnGB]

thank you very much! Most of the time it doesn't depend on the tool so just keep practicing!

[@MegaHacker30]

My favorite video of zbrush sculpt ever!!! Amazing! Congrats 😍 i watching more 100x 😂😂😂😂😂

[@JJ-tc5tt]

This is very impressive

[@sustainedtrader]

Great tips 💎

[@element1111]

Great technique for a large nose. Never thought of simplifying it into 3 spheres. Thanks!

[@FynnGB]

Thanks, I like to translate construction methods that I learn from drawing tutorials into the 3D space Thinking about how I would draw something helps me a lot when i sculpt

[@bigchooch4434]

How are you people so talented I can't even smooth a transition between two faces

[@krisfrosz133]

It's interesting you build the nose and ears with different mesh. Quite a different approach.

[@chetanbhasin1881]

Wow. Great job ..I finally realised I can’t do it..lol extreme level of detailing..👍

[@FynnGB]

I'm sure you can! It's a matter of practice and finding good resources to learn from!

[@ADI-xp4qe]

Glad to see you back Fynn! And I love your art style! Also wanna know how you render out your work too add them to your portfolio!

[@FynnGB]

Thanks a lot! :) I used to render my models in zbrush (sometimes with BPR and sometimes with Best Renderer) but for some time now I render with arnold in maya. A great resource for arnold is Arvid Schneider's KZbin channel.

[@FynnGB]

[@Maitraya3D]

@@FynnGB welcome 😊

[@Maitraya3D]

@@FynnGB I'm absolutely new to zBrush... i hv a question.. should i make hair, nose, neck, body as different element?? or after making it differently it becomes one mesh?

[@FynnGB]

@@Maitraya3D Hey, sry for the late reply, I didn't get a message somehow I think it it somewhat easier to have some things separate in the beginning like the ears from the head, head from the torso, hands/feet from the limbs to have smaller chunks you have to tackle. But once you're satisfied with the primary forms maybe with the secondary forms as well I would recommend to merge the meshes and clean up the intersection areas. Having things separate helps the most when you're constantly working over proportions and placements of certain parts

[@FynnGB]

another thing I would recommend is to have things separate that are somewhat separate in the real world as well. For example different materials like skin, hair, eyeballs, nails, teeth, and all kinds of accessories (cloth and stuff)

[@kadenmm]

[@FynnGB]

I used a concept by cedric peyravernay as a reference for this one

[@FuranTenshiFK]

I missed how you made the skin details, could you explain me how you give it that texture? Is it CB? Anyway I really really love the way you sculpt the skull before you do everything else. Superb, for real!

[@FynnGB]

thank you! I used a mixture of surface noises (in the surface menu) as well as the dam standart brush for wrinkles

[@FuranTenshiFK]

@@FynnGB thank you so much Fynn ❤️ Have a nice day :}

[@ilusao1111]

I've been wondering for a while, after watching some of your other videos, what do you do to your SkinShade4 that makes it look like that? It seems like it has some pinkish rim lighting or something. It looks awesome.

[@FynnGB]

Thanks George! I use the wax modifier for that material together with a very pale and subtle orange tone you can check out the default dynawax 128 sphere project in the lightbox and just dial down the wax modifier to 20-30 and you have the exact same material

[@mordecai1484]

@Fynn GB Hey can You tell me where to get that matcap?

[@chiefcaptn1922]

How long have you been sculpting? Nice work here man :) inspiring

[@FynnGB]

thank you! :) I've been sculpting for around 7-8 years now

[@braxtonfreeman9622]

Quick question, i just install IMM brush from Shane Olson, in Zbrush when i opened the brush not there just blank with the question mark on it. it say "error has been encountered while trying to load brush preset loading has been aborted" so can you tell me something wrong with that?

[@FynnGB]

Hey, I'm not familiar with these brushes but make sure that your Zbrush Version is not older than the one with that the brushes were created. If that's not the reason than I would recommend to contact Shane

[@shahednaderi]

fancy way of making a nose :D

[@deadman-zc5ro]

what material is that ?

[@ahsaniqbal9234]

very nice art work :)

[@FynnGB]

Thank you!

[@crimsonBen]

Hey Flynn! Love your way of sculpting! May i ask you how you build up the eye? I mean they are generated out of nowhere? @0:50 :D Those the Brush know that there is a second subtool in that place and build it abve that??

[@FynnGB]

Hey, I inserted a primitive Sphere that you can find in the subtool menu under 'insert' then I scaled it down to it's proper size and hit the mirror and weld button in the geometry -> modify topology tab.

[@crimsonBen]

@@FynnGB Fynn GB thanks! i was not quite clear about my question, i meant: how do you do that after you inserted and mirrored the eyeballs, you modify the headsculpt in the eye area so that its like that you are sculpting over the eyeball but the ball is not visible, does zbrush know that the ball is here but not visible so it automatically forms a ball-like" shape?

[@FynnGB]

@@crimsonBen I'm sorry for the really late reply! Somehow youtube doesn't notify me when there is an answer on a comment.. I used a combination of the move brush and the claybuildup brush to add the volume of the eyeball

[@FynnGB]

Thanks! It's a matter of practice, I know you can get to it as well!

[@mattcrum777]

Great work! Why do you start with a skull shape? Is that for you and your process only? Or is that something clients like to have for some reason?

[@FynnGB]

Thanks! It's something that I do for myself. It gives me a good framework to build upon and it's more objective than the fleshed out face so it's easier for me to establish the large forms and correct mistakes in the proportions in the beginning. Clients don't really care about the process, only on the results so you can do what works for you

[@mattcrum777]

Awesome! Thanks for the info.

[@kombokhan]

Hey man. First off, great work. Question: *How do I get the geometry to stop tucking into the sculpt when I Dynamesh? For example, I'll tuck in some arms that I made using ZSpheres into a Torso I made using a sphere and dynamesh, but when I open it in Maya to Retop or rig really fast, there's geometry from when the models clipped within each other in the other programs that cause problems. Not sure how to fix* 😦

[@FynnGB]

Hey, I'm not sure if I understood your problem correctly but if you want just one continuous mesh then you should merge the two objects in Zbrush make sure that the 'Groups' option in dynamesh is turned off and then dynamesh the whole object. This way it only maintains the outer geometry and deletes everything inside. Then I would suggest to either retopologize by hand to have an efficient topology or at least make a lower resolution model with Zremesher while symmetry is turned on.

[@kombokhan]

@@FynnGB ok thx

[@teresmajor7956]

That matcap is great. Any way to get it?

tools and free

[@bazonga9085]

Николай Ханзо One is professional and better and more complex. The other is free

[@martinvants1969]

@@bazonga9085 Though in Blender you can achieve same level of sculpt as Zbrush, but Zbrush is specifically made for Sculpting and has more options than blender, therefore is superior. But dont forget that Blender is Software for everything and he can do those tasks pretty well

[@Kholaslittlespot1]

Zbrush is mostly just for pure sculpting and costs around $500 to $800. It's probably the best thing for sculpting but it's hard to master. Blender does do a fairly good job of sculpting (especially for beginners) but also does animation, video editing, game engine creation and lots, lots more. Also Blender is free and the upcoming 2.8 version has a very clever real-time renderer, called 'Eevee'. Tbh I'm a little bit in love with both programs!
