DPP: UV Workflows \u2013 Unwrapping a Character in ZBrush \u2013 Week 4<\/p>\n
Join us for an exciting series of live streams about UV and texturing workflows in Cinema\u202f4D and ZBrush. In this series, we will guide you through the basics of UV editing and texture projections. Based on a series of useful projects, we are also going to go through the whole process of unwrapping characters, organic, and hard surface objects. <\/p>\n
Demystifying Post-Production: UV Workflows \u2013 Unwrapping a Character in ZBrush <\/p>\n
Join us for the last session about UV Workflows this month! Watch ZBrush expert Ian going through the UV unwrapping workflow in ZBrush. You will learn how to utilize automatic UV unwrapping as well as creating manual UV sets.<\/p>\n
