ZBrushCentral

ZBrushCentral is the official online community for ZBrush artists from around the world. It is the premier resource for users to share their artwork, exchange tips and techniques, and engage with fellow digital sculptors. The forums feature an inspirational gallery of the best user-submitted work, making it an essential destination for both new and professional artists.



Pro Projects

The Pro Projects section provides ZBrush for iPad users with a growing library of professionally crafted scenes and models. These projects can be an invaluable resource for learning and inspiration. You can deconstruct complex models to understand professional workflows, study advanced sculpting and painting techniques, or simply use a high-quality asset as a foundation for your own creations.

Upon first use, expect to see the Pro Projects gallery populated with thumbnails ready for downloading.

Tap any thumbnail to bring up the asset's information panel. Like what you see? Click the Download link to bring it into your tablet.

For convenience, you can view only the Pro Projects you've downloaded by clicking the Downloaded tab.

Also note that you can sort Pro Projects by date and title via the Sort by icon at the gallery's top-right corner.

And should you decide you no longer want a Pro Project you've downloaded, simply return to that project's Details panel. Do this by long-pressing on the gallery thumbnail to bring up its Details panel. At the bottom of the Details panel, you'll find the Download button has now turned into Uninstall.

Not least of all, Pro Projects also give you any custom brushes and textures the artist used in creating the file. You'll find these under Pro Projects in your Brushes and Textures, as shown below. Be aware that these elements are deleted if you uninstall the project.
