ZBrush 是一个数字雕刻和绘画软件，它以强大的功能和直观的工作流程彻底改变了整个三维行业。在一个简洁的界面中，ZBrush 为当代数字艺术家提供了世界上最先进的工具。以实用的思路开发出的功能组合，在激发艺术家创作力的同时，ZBrush 产生了一种用户感受，在操作时会感到非常的顺畅。ZBrush 能够雕刻高达 10 亿多边形的模型，所以说限制只取决于的艺术家自身的想象力。
ZBrush软件是世界上第一个让艺术家感到无约束自由创作的3D设计工具！它的出现完全颠覆了过去传统三维设计工具的工作模式，解放了艺术家们的双手和思维，告别过去那种依靠鼠标和参数来笨拙创作的模式，完全尊重设计师的创作灵感和传统工作习惯。

Digital-Tutors Quick Start to ZBrush Volume 1
Welcome to the Quick Start to ZBrush, a series of specially constructed courses meant to be followed in sequence and which include valuable exercises to reinforce learned concepts.
The lesson format for these Quick Starts will be similar to other Digital-Tutors introductory training. We’ll go through ZBrush in a very methodical, step-by-step, way, making sure to cover the tools and techniques that are most important in enabling you to get up and running quickly. Each volume of a Quick Start will build upon the previous volume, enabling us to progressively build up a complex project into a finished state.
In this initial volume, we’ll cover the basics of getting started working in ZBrush. We’ll discuss navigation and the interface. We’ll cover methods of working with primitive geometry and subdividing geometry. We’ll also learn about working with multiple subtools, strokes and alphas, and masking. In the end we’ll end up with an organic piece of geometry for the base of our overall Quick Start project.
While following along with these lessons and building a project together will provide you with valuable knowledge, the real power comes from being able to take the techniques you’ve learned and apply them in a different way to your own work. With this in mind, you’ll be presented with an assignment immediately following each volume. These assignments will challenge you to take the skills that you’ve learned in a particular volume and apply them to a different asset.
These courses are designed to be taken in sequence so we really encourage you to start with this volume and proceed all the way through to Volume 5, and taking advantage of the periodic assignments along the way to get the full learning experience.
