Learn how a professional character artist works when creating characters for games. You’ll learn techniques like blocking out, Cloth sculpting, Hard Surface Sculpting, High poly creation & detailing, and much more all inside of Zbrush.

ZBRUSH

There is a lot covered in this course, but the main topics include:

Creating character anatomy and body forms from scratch
Hard-surface modeling directly inside ZBrush
Building a character blockout and refining it to the final result
Sculpting stylized clothing
Creating stylized weapons in ZBrush

And much more.

In this course, you will learn everything you need to create the final results shown in the images and trailers. The same techniques can also be applied to almost any type of character project.

34+ HOURS – EVERYTHING DONE IN REAL TIME

This course contains more than 34 hours of content for Part 1 alone. You can follow every single step, as the entire course is created in real time and fully narrated.

We begin by reviewing the reference material and creating the initial anatomy of the character completely from scratch. From there, we refine the main body before moving on to blocking out the hard-surface armor.

Once that is completed, we continue with the clothing blockouts and additional accessories, followed by the refinement phase.

During this phase, each blockout piece is transformed into a clean final high-poly model, ready for retopology.

To complete the tutorial, we also create a hard-surface weapon to give the character even more visual interest.

WHERE IS PART 2?

Part 2 will be uploaded soon. Once it is available, we will post the link here.

In Part 2, we will turn the character into a final game-ready model, pose it, and render it in Marmoset Toolbag.

SKILL LEVEL

This game art tutorial is ideal for artists with intermediate-level experience in ZBrush. Everything is explained in considerable detail. However, if you have never used ZBrush before, we recommend watching an introductory tutorial first. You can find many free options on YouTube, as well as paid courses on this website.
