Creating a Jewellery Ring base to size inside ZBrush
As 3D production and detail increases it is becoming pretty standard to produce your own jewellery inside ZBrush with unlimited creative freedom.
Sizing your Jewellery Design in ZBrush is a skill that also needs to be respected and the use of the transpose and scale master plugin it is now possible to get very precise measurements in ZBrush.
The Process
What I like to do is set up my ring bank and work my design over the top of this adding to it.
Once I have checked the detail thickness an important factor when printing anything (make sure your doing your own detail check and unsupported angle test on your printer)
Once happy with the general design I will then create the shell using numerous techniques, the Boolian feature in ZBrush can be very effective for this process.
Before selling this as a product its essential you get final test printed your self sometimes you will find you might need to add more cavity or height to some of the details so that they print well.
Remember to a certain degree your always going to lose some detail so its important to factor this in.
