ZBrush is a digital sculpting, modeling, and painting software. It is used for creating highly detailed 3D models. The software allows users to model 3D shapes with a system of customizable tools and features, including over 200 brushes, that allows users to work with polygons in a similar way to using clay.
ZBrush is created and manufactured by Maxon. It is considered an industry-leading tool, winning an Academy Award. The software has an intuitive brush system that adapts to any style, giving the user precision and control. Updates have made it easier to integrate ZBrush into various production pipelines on both desktop and iPad. Recent updates include a new Retopo Brush, a restructured folder system, a photogrammetry feature, a quick search function, enhancements to import/export options, and auto-save.
ZBrush is available on a subscription basis. To use the application, users must register for a MyMaxon account and accept the EULA. It is compatible with the latest versions of Windows, macOS, and iPadOS.
