💜 Thank you all of those who give their support. 💜 First of all, just want to thank everyone who replied to my last journal! I haven't gotten a chance to reply to them all yet, but Ive read everything and it's given me a lot to consider! Thank you <3
So, I've had zbrush for a good while now, but only recently sat down with it and tried to give it a go.
I'm not gonna lie, I feel dumb and lost trying to tackle this program and learn it. x3 I've watched a few tutorials, but some of them feel like they aren't really for beginners like they state they are.
I know there are some people around who use it, So i was wondering if anyone knows some good tutorials for absolute beginners? Or maybe have some tips for someone just starting to use it?
Thanks for the time and help once again <3

If it's just sculpting you want, Blender is actually pretty good for that these days and it's about 10 times easier to pick up (despite its reputation). But of course ZBrush has other so that might be beside the point.
Can't type sometimes.
The best one I found is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PO--0h8XHiw
I tried Zbrush but I simply couldn't stomach it's interface. If you haven't bought it yet, I recommend to download and trial 3D coat, it's interface is much more friendly and intuitive. If you already have Zbrush, go for it - it is an industry standard; just be patient :)
Also, Blender is very nice; especially since the introduced dynamic topology but (IMO) both Zbrush and 3Dcoat are (far) better for sculpting.
I think you'll like this one. This is what I watched after I first opened zBrush and freaked out. Before you know it, you'll be sculpting a ton of awesome stuff!

I'm no expert, but I've been using it for a few years for various bits and pieces from 3D printing to scene building. You can take a quick glance at my gallery to see the sorts of things I do. So if there are any odd questions you have, feel free to drop me a note.
I would also recommend the free intro to ZBrush series created by Michael Pavlovich : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCW.....zpaCYNnjcejS-Q
The ZBrush Summit videos for cartoon style artists like Danny Williams, Zack Petroc, and Shane Olson would probably be helpful as well. As these show the general process of how other artists use the program to produce their work.
