You will learn how to create holes and stitches in the buttons for the eyes of your scarecrow. You will produce these details by using the Clay Tubes, Smooth, and MAHcut Mech A brushes as well as using the Move tool and Duplicate command.
- [Narrator] Let's create buttonholes, but before we do,…I want to adjust the focal shift of my brush.…Currently, I have a fairly large falloff,…so if I start to create my buttonhole,…I get a bit of a wide edge around the shape.…I want that to be tighter,…so I'm going to bring focal shift down to 100,…and that's going to actually five me a much sharper…edge around the shape.…I'm also getting a bit of a chiseled edge,…so this would mean either one of two things.…
Convert this mesh into a DynaMesh,…which I could very easily do,…or I can just go up one in my divisions.…What I've noticed in my experience, is, a division seven…is really the sweet spot where ZBrush wants me to stay.…Even though I have the ability to go to a division eight,…ZBrush doesn't really like it when I do that in my system.…What I tend to do, as a cheat, and it happens to work,…you'll notice that my division one is a very low polygon.…
It's actually so low, I'm not gonna use it.…So I'll bring my model up to a division two,…and delete lower.…And then I'll go back up, which now,…
