Pixologic Zbrush is professional digital sculpting, modeling, painting, and texturing software now developed by Maxon. Artists use it to sculpt detailed characters, creatures, hard-surface objects, collectibles, jewelry, and models for games, films, animation, visual effects, and 3D printing.
The software offers pressure-sensitive brushes, flexible remeshing, polygon modeling, direct surface painting, UV tools, and integrated rendering. It handles models containing millions of polygons while giving artists detailed control over shape and surface design.
