In the process of model creation, topology is a crucial step. A well-topologized model ensures cleaner edge flow, preventing issues such as distortion or breakage. Additionally, reducing the polygon count helps decrease file size, achieving an optimized result.

Skeleton Jack
Learned the basic knowledge of ZBrush software and its interface structure, became familiar with modeling operations, and created a simple bust of Skeleton Jack. Used ZBrush’s built-in material spheres to apply materials to the model and rendered the final result.
Create a sphere, use the Move tool, increase the brush size, adjust the shape, and use masking to outline the positions of the facial features.
First, shape the rough form of the body in Maya, then import it into ZBrush for detailed sculpting.

3D Printing Experience
I have always wanted to experience 3D printing technology. When I saw that we could book a 3D printing workshop on LCC’s Moodle, I decided to try printing this low-poly animal model.
