As I said in the last one, please do 3d for more than a week before making threads.

Any examples of good blockouts? Every sculpting video I see just uses a premade mesh for a base.

Shane Olson does this very good, he has a ton of youtube videos, but he only does stylized, still the principle stands.

Literally every decent 3D artists uses blockout techniques. It's like a sketch, every field does this shit.

I block out the shape using primitives, but I dont block in every single muscle because at that point its tedious and I get quicker results using clay brushes anyway

I've seen plenty of experienced zbrush sculptors use zspheres or start from a sphere. I feel like a blockout is the most logical starting point if you have specific design in mind though.

that is not supposed to be done, blocking out is just to get the main shapes in.

a zsphere armature is still a form of blockout, one thing you'll learn once you've done 3d for more than a week is that everyone develops their own preferred workflows and methods that suit their skillset, sometimes you will change that process depending on the chosen outcome.

Trying to find "magic bullets" is the domain of the noob.

Now stop making threads.

As the other anon said, that can also be a form of a blockout. Blockout isn't one specific way of doing things like in OP's pic.

They would start with spheres and still make basic shapes with correct proportions before detailing them. You don't append the sphere and immediately start sculpting 1M poly eye before blocking out the whole head / body.

>why have you faggots not taken the block out pill yet?
I work that way, I sculpt shit to print and I want to have lots of variations so it is better to keep all in different pieces and it is also easy to pose because you don't have to rig and weight paint just pose it and fix the model sculpting a "blend shape" , no I don't block every muscle.

Are nurbs curves really better for hair than bezier?

they are better to do hair cards, if you are doing stylized curves could be better.

Just because he's a good scultor doesn't mean he has the best/most productive workflow.

bro, nobody brute forces it like my boi Bernini on marble slabs
