Many students struggle with creating clean, production-ready hard-surface elements for characters — dealing with messy topology, soft edges, unclear workflows, or models that simply don’t hold up in a professional pipeline. If you find yourself spending too much time fixing shapes instead of designing them, this course is designed to solve exactly those issues.

Course Project Overview:

We will start with a ZBrush basemesh. Then we will sculpt and improve the anatomy then we start sketching the hardsurface panel on the character from our concept.Then we redesign and make cut outs on our dynamesh. Then we use panel loops on our zremesh geo then we polish and add tertiary details. Once that's done we take our character to marmoset to generate beauty renders.
