        thank you Simon for the help, i never read the documentation = )
        anyway, im totaly in love with this 3d app... thanks again for starting this thread.
        And i second Shura's comment:
        "hope you don't mind it has turned into a collective workshop" 😕

        (i was looking around for a group in flickr to share my work,
        to my surprise it wasnt any sculptris groups there?... so i started one 😄 )

        i'v been working on "Marv" from sin city for a couple of days...
        long way to go but adding details now

          These probably are more than enough in most cases. Better not use larger than 2048 px textures in SU.

            After all it is your LIP thread, hope you don't mind it has turned into a collective workshop. 😉

            I am glad it has turned into a collective workshop and then into a living place! May be the title can now be modified as just "[LIP]= Sculptris"

            @simon, 349$ are less than 350 lol, No. I really believe that it isn't expensive at all

            99$ for educational version ->

            You are right for everything and this educational version should fit very well to me. 😉

            Still on the road,
            everything is interesting, please keep it on,

                  As I can understand; this is the big news, YOU ARE STARTING A CLASSROOM!!

                  How could I start a classroom? Where? Any ideas? Always my pleasure to help each other. Just dont ask me how to sculpt a nose - my weak point always. 😆 On ears, my speciality. On abstract structure, my favorite part. On anatomy, I hate it, probably the greatest lie in history of art.

                  @pilou
                  There is a useful plug for that (non manifolds remover), help please, I need this.
                  Please post this link to 3dc forum as well, some SU users there may need it.
                  And my post here, a statue of venus I already posted as a podium test render, here the 'original' zbrush render (BPR) at 3M poly this time (5 sec render time) .

                        Hi guys,

                        Since I still don't have much time for doing the tests initiated by Michalis, here is an interlude.
                        I had made about 12/13 years ago a serial of 7 or 8 sculptures after I had found pieces of light stone at the output of an old stones carry. Today I have taken pictures for this thread of three sculptures that are left in my possession.

                        this one was made into a small piece of an old wooden handrail. The wood is oak.

                          Huh? 😲
                          Sometimes I wonder if all this 3D hassle is worthy of my time or not. I used to soothe myself thinking how 3D printing would spark my "home manufacturing revolution", but now that I have seen this...A real hand-made that still beats the cr@p out of 3D printing as far as I am concerned.
                          Makes me want to build scale models again. Plus the glue fumes...
                          Congratulations, Simon! 👍

                          Comfortably numb...

                            This is the kind of sculpture I like Simon.
                            Nice 3d printing. 😆

                            Great work !!!!

                                Hi guys,
                                You're nice and kind 👍 😄

                                I have made a speed test with import export .obj

                                Native "File/Export as Obj" with SU7 pro works fine.

                                Tig's OBJexporter and Import OBJ with Materials worked perfectly with Su6 free. (thank you a lot dear TIG)


                                http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj245/Spendauballet/Sculptris/thbiscotte_import_00.jpg

                                remind: from Scuptris included documentation

                                @unknownuser said:

                                Import OBJ - Import an existing OBJ file. Useful if you want multiple objects for sculpting, or somewhat more complex topology than a sphere. Compatibility is limited. Use single closed triangulated mesh(es) without sharp corners, and with less than 24 connections per vertex (no high-resolution spheres, unless they are geospheres)

                                In Fact, there is no need to produce a model "without sharp corners" after some tries I had mad a simple "hard square" and this worked.

                                No need also to subdivide the model into SU. Sculptris do the job itself easily using "Subdivide All" button

                                http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj245/Spendauballet/Sculptris/thbiscotte_import_03.jpg

                                The various tools expend the subdivision in relation with Detail slider.

                                There is also a "Reduce Selected" button in order to export back to SU a reduced mesh which works on the full model,
                                (4 or 5 iterations:)

                                http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj245/Spendauballet/Sculptris/thbiscotte_import_05.jpg

                                And more handy, I have used "Reduce Brush" button to reduce by zones.

                                At the end, "cherry on the cake" I have used Chris Fullmer's Extrapolate Colors to make a harlequin render.

                                  You have also Random Painter by Chris Fullmer! 😉

                                  Else it's a very cool workflow for make "subdivision and Smooth" with SU6! (or up) 😎

                                  Ok traduction faite 😎
                                  Je vais évidemment la mettre aussi sur la "French Section" à SketchEducation 😉

                                    Nice harlequin technique, can also do a good job in case you want to do one of Gaudi's rooftop sculptures...

                                      The cool thing of this, is that you can use use the "pressure" inside Sculptis 😉

                                        Thanks for keeping us informed, Simon. 👍
                                        Very interesting workaround for organic modeling.

                                          ☀ Hi!

                                          If I have verified the import/export abilities between SU and Sculptris,
                                          And also have verified that tools of Sculptris worked on Su "waterproof" models,
                                          the "traduction" of Pilou point out better than I had done the rich combination SketchUP/Sculptris to make subdivisions job.!!

                                          We know how Su and the better quadcore are easily put on their knees by subdivision operations.. Sculptris make the job: "fingers in the nose" so 😉 !!

                                          See you soon,

                                          Simon.

                                            Very interesting work -- I have used Z-brush and I have contemplated 3-D Coat but Sculptris seems to be a viable alternative.

                                            The harlequin technique was very appealing as well...

                                            Best,
                                            Jason.

                                            I create video tutorial series about several 2D & 3D graphics programs.
