Conceptualize, Create and Complete 100% ZBrushZBrush is the # 1 choice of artists, used to freely explore and create digital artwork.ZBrush is a fundamental art tool, integrating and expanding all processes of artistic imagination and digital creation without the usual technological restraints.
ZBrush harnesses and unleashes the creative potential and visualization of today’s digital artist.
‘‘There are some people who are kind of mathematical or very scientific about the way they do things. I’m more organic about it. I just want to get in there and start pushing stuff around and do something. And that’s what I like about ZBrush. It’s so much like sculpting...That is so cool.’’
Rick Baker - ZBrush artist, AKA ‘monstermaker’ and 7 time Academy Awards® winner
“ZBrush is my main tool here at Framestore’s Art Department which I use every single day. It’s important to have features like DynaMesh to be able to start with something from scratch and not have to use any other software to finish my concepts.”

What students and educators say… “Full Sail University always looks to industry leading
software when creating our curriculum. Not only does
ZBrush fit that mold, but the software is also easy to
use and works very well with our educational pipeline.
ZBrush has done a great job of seamlessly integrating
their technology, which allows our students to focus
more on their artistic skills. With every iteration, ZBrush
continues to push the boundaries of digital sculpting and
provides our students with the tools they need to stay
ahead.”
Tim Bowser - Computer Animation, Modeling Department Chair Full Sail University
“The use of ZBrush runs deep and has a huge impact in the 3D world. As a result, it’s not only logical that our students learn it – it’s imperative. The relationship that we have developed with Pixologic supports that and ensures ZBrush is integrated correctly into our curriculum. VFS grads are, and always have been, in high demand and that is a result of entering the industry with relevant and current skills.The ability to use tools like ZBrush certainly helps them become successful animators (and modelers) at an accelerated rate.”
Marty Hasselbach - Managing Director, vancouver Film School
“ZBrush is definitely the most important tool for a character artist, but one can also do so much with it in environment modeling. It makes one’s work so much faster. I love the freedom it gives. I think every student should really take it upon themselves to learn at least one sculpting package thoroughly. Today ZBrush is definitely the way to go.’’
Magdalena Dadela - vFS 3D Animation & visual Effects
graduate, character modeler at Guerrilla Games
“ZBrush is one of the most innovative tools to hit our industry in a long time. Since the inclusion of ZBrush to our programs, we have seen a dramatic increase in the quality of character and creature models produced by our students. ZBrush has truly unleashed the talent of our up-and-coming production artists. Gnomon was the first school to integrate ZBrush into our program and now offer 8 courses that incorporate its tools for character, creature and game specific modeling.’’
