Wanted to share a 3D model I am working on and what better place than the Godzilla 2014 Fan Art Forums! Working on Showa Gigan from 1972's Godzilla vs. Gigan. Planning on going all the way to fully textured lowpoly and posing. Was playing around with Zbrush rendering and posing.

Holy shit this is insanely well done! You are lightyears ahead of my skills, i have a question! How do you go about making the body? For example I have a head right now but thats it, ive been modeling a head, i want to start on the body, is there a way to add another sphere and shape in zbrush?

I'm a complete newb to the program, I just don't know how to approach it. And I was wondering if I eventually want to end up rigging it, are there things I should do or know before hand?

I'm moderatley new to Zbrush also in the way of starting from scratch in the program. I built my base mesh in 3ds Max then imported into Zbrush and sculpted to a certain point then rebuilt the mesh to get better sculpting and topology flow. I know you could add shapes by appending the subtool you're using but also you could append a Zsphere and use Zsphere to build a rough rig which then could be transformed into a mesh to sculpt on.

Bit hard to explain, send me a PM and I can look through my bookmarks and see what Zbrush tutorials I may have saved. They could explain better than I could. :)

Yes, you can totally add a new shape. the new shape will be a new subtool. And you'll have to 'append' it from the subtool palette.
