Review on ZBrush by Will Schimmel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great 3D modeling environment that takes an amount of patience

I love how fast it works, just like using Photoshop or Painter! It's not as easy to use as some other programs but once you get used to it, it becomes second nature. You can't do too much at one time so when you switch between brushes/palettes/etc., there are more things to learn rather than having to relearn everything everytime you go back into another brush. The learning curve for this program isn't really steep at all, though some functions may take a little longer to understand. I've had no problems trying to figure out anything about zbrush, only thing left to try would be getting better tutorials available (not everyone knows what they're doing). Just because something is "easy" doesn't mean there shouldn't be good tutorials - if anything, people need more help figuring stuff out than less help from tutorials. A great way to make quick progress and keep in touch with realistic effects without being overwhelmed by software. My main goal was.

Pros
  • Easy interface design.
  • Highly customizable tools such that almost anyone could create their own workflows within them,
  • Excellent asset management system where artists store assets locally onto hard drives before uploading files online via internet connection(with an optional client) while also allowing users who don’t have direct access through Internet connections upload local data instead)
  • Low startup cost compared most modern 3D modeling softwares which require expensive high end computers
Cons
  • Mostly okay, but...
