Mastering skull sculpting in Zbrush

Take your anatomy sculpting to the next level with this in-depth ZBrush tutorial focused on creating a realistic human skull, from the primary forms to the finest micro details. Whether you're a character artist, creature designer, or anatomy enthusiast, this tutorial offers practical techniques and pro tips to improve your sculpting workflow.

In this tutorial, I walk you through my entire process—starting from the basic proportions to blockout all the way to final surface detailing—while explaining how to analyze form, structure, and anatomical accuracy.

This course is best fit for the artists who know how to use Zbrush, so intermediate and advanced artists can benefit from it.

To push realism further, I’ve included my custom brush pack used throughout the tutorial. These brushes are tailored for adding:

• Surface imperfections
• Bone damage and erosion
• Cracks, pores, and micro chipping
• Natural asymmetry and wear

These tools are perfect not just for skulls
