In this course we will consider the basics of working in Mudbox, including geometry, sculpture, painting textures, creating the model and export the grid, and maps.

Mudbox is a powerful tool for creating 3D-artists. This allows us to sculpt a very high resolution models, texture paint design for them and access to the grids of useful state. Using the project approach, we follow the basics of working in Mudbox, such as the user interface and work with geometry. We will look at the sculpture and painting subjects such as working with brands, setting brush properties, work with the paint layer, with the help of Mudbox with Adobe ® Photoshop ® and painting a few channels. We'll also cover methods for creating vector displacement maps to reproduce intricate details, and we learn to use the pose of tools to quickly create or deform our models. By the end of this course, you will have the understanding necessary to integrate into your own Mudbox workflow and get to the sculpture and painting their own projects.
