And I'm assuming, just extrapolating on that, then now you have to understand the different kinds of muscles and the connection points to the bones in order to flesh out, if you will, the figure as well, right? You know what? I had never thought of the human skeleton in that way, that there are, you know, a fixed number of joints that move in a fixed direction, and depending on any fantastical creature that you're gonna build, you have to understand how all of the different joints come together. In Canada, we don't say "Zee," we say "Zed." So ZedBrush.ĭAL: Yeah, doesn't quite roll off the tongue.

I said "ZedBrush."ĭAL: You said "ZedBrush," yes, that's good, ZedBrush. So I don't do it anymore, but I hope when I get into zeeBrush or zedBrush a little bit more, I will be able to do some more sculpting without the mess and the firing. Takes up a lot of space and you have to fire the clay. So at least it's true for me, first I have to know what I'm doing, first I have to understand what I'm doing before I can put it into 3D, or model it in clay for that matter, which is very similar in the process.ĭAL: Do you model in clay much to get inspiration or to flesh out ideas, I guess? So if you don't understand this and don't know how the shape defines functionality, you are probably not going to have a very good time or a fun time modeling that thing. Or the shoulder, that's another joint there. So those are three types of joints already.

BLACKSMITH3D TUTORIAL HOW TO
So you have to learn how to model a joint, what kind of joint is used in an elbow or a knee or a wrist. Kim: Well, if I think of a current project I'm working on, it's a dragon skeleton and I had to do huge amount of research about animal and human skeletons before I could do that. So how critical do you think it is to understand how something works to be able to model it properly? How critical is it to understand how something works in order to be able to model it properly? For example, you and I talked a bit before about modeling a weapon, and you said that you have no interest in it because you have no working knowledge of it.
