Master the art of decimation in ZBrush
Discover how Totenn effectively reduces polygon count with a Decimation feature in Maxon Zbrush. Don’t miss out on liking his incredible creations and following his ArtStation profile. Thank you for sharing this Quick Tip with us.
What really helps me a lot: Decimation, my models used to have 100-400 million polygons but when I started to decimate every object when I felt happy with the result, I started to go down to 20-50 millions..
