ZBrush 3.5 R3 is now available for all the ZBrush registered users.. or for the new ZBrush customers!

This R3 is not just a bug fix release, but add several new features and enhancements which brings the sculpting software to a new level, especially in the hard sculpting field, making this R3 what should have been (IMHO) ZBrush 4.5 while ZBrush 3.5 should have been ZBrush 4.0 :)

With the 3.5 R3, you will have some nice new additions like:

  • Quicksketch, a 2D sketching plugin, to draw your ideas in a click. Just try it, it’s very addictive!
  • A huge set of new features for the polygroups creations: new groups from polypainting or masks, GroupsLoops to create loops around the polygroups, export polygroups as polypainting, etc…
  • The Remeshing, to create new object based on the combination (or subtractions / intersections) with the visible SubTools. It’s a kind of boolean solution, but to create new basemeshes.
  • Tons of new brushes, included the new h/m/sPolish which will become your new favorite brushes for sure: with a low pressure, it will polish your surface and a high pressure will create hard edges on the border of the stroke, while protecting the surface angle. A real joy :)
  • Various new additions on the brush settings: stabilization of the brush, angle masking, brush tilting, etc….

Just check the new ZBrush 3.5 webpages on Pixologic.com for a new feature overview, view the presentation video on these same pages and don’t forget the ZBrush 3.5 car design tutorial by Pixolator himself :)

Don’t forget that ZBrush 3.5 R3 is a free update for all the ZBrush customers. Which others company do that?
