What’s New

ZBrush for iPad enables artists to create anywhere, sculpting everything from fantastical figures to intricate forms. The November release brings even more customization and intuitive iPad-first navigation, with new features designed to improve the user experience while continuing to simplify the interface. Apple Pencil Pro’s roll feature has been added to support changes to the following sliders: Draw Size, Focal Shift, Z Intensity, and RGB Intensity. Any user with an iPad that supports hover state will be able to move their Pencil over any icon in the main UI to receive information on that feature. Improvements to the undo history make it easier to understand and mark any undo history point to be used. To speed up brush switching, users can now add the Gizmo, Dynamesh, Sculptris Pro, ZRemesher, Subdivision and Live Boolean icons to the custom bottom bar. And ZBrush for iPad now also supports the same set of languages as the desktop version.

Born in Clay

ZBrush sets the industry standard for digital sculpting and painting. Its features enable you to use customizable brushes to shape, texture and paint virtual clay in a real-time environment that provides instant feedback. When you use ZBrush you'll be empowered by the same tools employed by film studios, game developers, toy/collectible makers, jewelry designers, automotive/aviation designers, illustrators, advertisers, scientists and other artists the world over. In fact, we have even received an Academy Award for the technology that powers ZBrush.


In short, ZBrush is an art tool created by artists, for artists. It allows you to create models and illustrations limited only by your imagination, at a speed that allows you to stand out in today's fast paced industry.

ZBrush

Digital Sculpting

Get empowered by the world’s leading digital sculpting solution. The powerful systems inside of ZBrush are designed to eliminate the constraints of traditional modeling and allow you to create freely, just as you would with clay.


When you’re ready to move your 3D sculpt into a pipeline for animation, rendering or 3D printing, the tools to do so are at hand.

ZBrush

Painting & Texturing

Because ZBrush works with tens of millions of polygons in real-time, you can paint directly on the surface of the model without first assigning a texture map or UV’s. This offers significant advantages compared to a standard workflow. The resolution of the texture map does not need to be decided in advance. You have the freedom to visualize, explore and create textures in 3D, and in real time.

ZBrush

Ready, Set, Render

Whether you are using ZBrush by itself as an illustration tool or as part of a production pipeline for animation, you will at some point want to show your work to others. ZBrush makes this possible using Redshift, as well as a powerful rendering system called BPR (Best Preview Render).

ZBrush

Tools Pipeline

The intuitive approach of ZBrush doesn’t end with sculpting and painting. Interoperability is at your fingertips, with support for key file formats and real time integration with a number of popular software packages.
