This latest ZBrushCentral post by Stone3D shows that the art form still has room to grow. Using ZBrush 4R5’s latest features including Panel Loops to create his template for a sleeve, Stone3D was able to generate a pretty cool line drawing for the ink to flow through.

We recently saw ZBrushCentral member khalavi’s micro sized Halo 4 sculpts here on the ZBrush blog. In that post, we mentioned that khalavi also played a role in creating Disney’s Frankenweenie collection for The Bridge Direct. It goes without saying that we couldn’t help but do an artist spotlight on Khurram H. Alavi and tell everyone that the Frankenweenie collectibles are available now and feature some highly detailed figures from this modern Disney classic. What’s more, they were all started using Dynamesh inside ZBrush! You can see more toy goodness by visiting The Bridge and explore their entire product line.
