Unfortunately the image was very low res.and of course it becomes more difficult when you want to work on details.so I used some close up images for help which I had saved from the. I found this image in my laptop, when I was looking for people and suddenly saw this old man I realised that sculpting this man could be a challenge with those wrinkles.

Sometimes a regular person can be exciting and more challenging. It's not always necessary to sculpt famous actors or singers. I didn’t expect something this soon, so… who knows.For the first step you have to make it clear what sort of portrait you’re gonna do and look for inspirations. But the developer is really an impressive fucking guy. Someone mentioned doing the overlapping alpha operation 3 times for R, G and B, this would be the same principle but add R and M. I mean I’m dreaming obviously, these are high level features and I think the UVs are more pressing but it seems like the skeleton code is already there. Zbrush users know what I’m talking about, but I actually think there is even greater potential for nomad considering it already supports PBR, we could add individual brush alphas for albedo, roughness and metalness maps and paint them and sculpt/displacement simultaneously a la Mari or mudbox.

The ability to drag out an alpha with scales and have the color of those scales applied simultaneously, or apply a RGB skin texture with the bumps and wrinkles matching the colors perfectly. And yes the ability to paint RGB colors and sculpt simultaneously would be (and is, already in other softwares) extremely powerful. Whoever mentioned spotlight in Zbrush that is exactly what I was thinking about.

All it has to do is give you a warning, if it detects UVs and you activate any of the remesh / dynamic tessellation features that it will be doing so destructively. That would go a long way towards quality of life improvements. Unless there is an open source implementation of something as good as Zbrush’s UV master, I would much rather just have the ability to handle my UVs in another application and reimport the UVed version back into nomad. No sense adding some hacky tri-planar auto unwrap like they have in forger, that is less than a half measure… hardly even usable and far from good results. Only need to be able to keep my old pre-existing UVs across the whole workflow and this software is legitimately pipeline ready.
