Explore advanced 3D printing techniques in this comprehensive video tutorial led by digital modeler and painter Scott Unruh. Learn how to break apart 3D models in ZBrush for resin 3D printing, optimize models for painting, and utilize Substance Painter and Cinema 4D for animation. Master progressive detail layering, weight balancing, and polygroup management while creating a robot concept. Discover tips for print preparation, including key cutting and fragmentation. Gain insights into using Chitubox for slicing, hollowing objects, and creating support systems. The tutorial also covers client approaches, future 3D printing trends, hardware recommendations, and the importance of pre-visualization in 3D modeling. Conclude with a Q&A session addressing various aspects of 3D printing and digital sculpting.
