So I've been wondering why one should buy zBrush if you

>>511525
why use a lesser tool?
pixologic bought sculptris so they would have less competitors

>>511527
So there's no big difference between the two?

top zozzle!

Theres a huge difference. One is good and the other one sucks which is why they have it for free.

Sculptris vs zbrush is equivalent to trying to cut a steak with the backside of the knife when the blade side is avaliabe to you

It would be impossible to do something like this in sculptris, but the dude can do it within hours within ZBrush. ZBrush provides lots of tools for speeding up your workflow and creating procedural and clean looking work.

lol'd

sculptris has no real support for background/reference images. which really is important when sculpting off a reference. that alone makes it unusable for me.

Its been a while since I used sculptris but, reasons why zbrush is better

polygroups
transpose masking and modifying
dynamesh for merging geometry

Thanks, that's all I wanted know.

also all hard surface tools, like : cut, trim, group loops, panel loops, extruding, zmodeler, zremesher, uv master, transpose master
all those tools are really helpfull

>>511525
Sculptris only increase triangular mesh, not quads which would be a shitty model to use.

Sculptris is a good beginner's program for sculpting but you'll eventually exhaust it's ability and want to move on to something with more features.

It's a fun way to introduce yourself to sculpting. I used to enjoy playing with it when I was babby tier.
