I’m outraged that I paid so much money to get a perpetual license for zbrush in 2019 and then the company sells it to Maxon. When I bought it, I bought it understanding that I would get all future upgrades free of charge. I guess that isn’t true.
honestly i hate maxon, but pixologic only promised a one year update, they were extremely generous and performing the impossible for so many years by giving free upgrade. I got my license during zbrush summit 2021.. the bad news hit on 14 December. I am still feeling disappointed with their decision to go with Maxon.
Lets just say, there are 200,00 legal perpetual license owner out there. If each annual update cost USD100, and half of the these license owners are willing to do annual update, Maxon could easily make 10 Million just from annual upgrade.
$600 is not "absolutely atrocious" it's pretty much better than every other software when you take the sub-model into account. I paid about $400 around 15 years ago & it's the best software investment I've ever made. I've gotten 15 years of never versions for free. Maya is $200 a fucking year.
It's fine to use for legacy features. It's just that surprise surprise... the switch to Maxon didn't bring anything special at all, and Zbrush's reputation for mind-blowing updates has vanished.
If I were sponsored, Maxon would not like 8/10 of my most recent videos. Will you please layout a case that shows Zbrush is not the best tool for the job in regards to sculpting?
@@AlHowell Have you heard yourself in this video? I thought saying you were sponsored would be funny because it's really biased. I'm sure you weren't sponsored just funny saying that you were lol
Gunna pirate the fuck out of Zbrush. They’re rich already, don’t need all that money, aren’t losing a physical z brush sale just cos I got it and the art world will be a better place with my passion being added to the community 😉 Here I come! Imagine feeling bad about getting a good product to make good products for good people.. Simps can cry me a river. My own fam were salty af when I used to get games they’d spend their hard earned rations to collect. No wonder those clowns don’t have cars or any kinda vehicle license yet. They’re subscribed to pop culture so as long as long as there’s a product to sell and they have a dollar to spend, you can be sure it will be wasted funding another man’s dream life rather than being saved or invested for themselves. I came to make games, not buy them and yeh.. no… you ain’t getting a cheap motorbike’s worth of money for something I can get for free.
+ The Zmodeler is mind blowing! Eliminates the need for using other packages for hardsurface modeling
Exactly. I was able to create almost any hard surface model with it.
Is true Zbrush is amazing I will still using it but not paying for it, you know what I mean. I cancel it a month ago and that is forever.
I know what you mean lol
Big daddy maxon is coming for you 😂
@@tensazangetsu6587 xD
Perpetual license owner here. Zbrush is the best!
Thank you!
Zbrush undo for each sub tool is super, Super high. 20,000 undos for each sub tool:)
It really is insane
Totally agree 👍👍👍
Zbrush: ”the most successful and intuitive 3D modeling software ever devised”.
Blender 2.80 onwards: “Allow us to introduce ourselves”.

I see what you are saying…but This was $659 per upgrade. (Although that is all obsolete now) After you already bought the full version of Zbrush
It's fine to use for legacy features. It's just that surprise surprise... the switch to Maxon didn't bring anything special at all, and Zbrush's reputation for mind-blowing updates has vanished.
Yep… it really has
Bcz Zbrush still so cool))
Sculpris Pro is my god tool, fr fr
Well said.. well said... said it after Maxon send him a check hahaahahaha kidding!
Still waiting on my check :P
@@AlHowell hahahahahaha its on its way mate!!
Really need to know-Is it worth it to have Redshift GPU or does the default CPU Redshift render work good enough in ZBrush 2023??
Sorry, I do not use Redshift So I am not sure...
Totally not sponsored lol

@@AlHowell Have you heard yourself in this video? I thought saying you were sponsored would be funny because it's really biased. I'm sure you weren't sponsored just funny saying that you were lol
It's objectively the best sculpting tool for most jobs. Not a personal bias
@@AlHowell ok dude
I feel like the monthly price is more than fair.
I have Amd radeon integrated graphics of size 512 mb can i use z brush smoothly?
It's hard for me to say bc I'm not a hardware guy, BUT Zbrush is CPU based and I have used it quite successfully on very lowend/ old laptops.
Thank you
🤯Am I the only one who has to verify the perpetual license ever 14 days? Thanks
Yeah, posted right after he posts about getting his $20 a year license approved 🤦🏻♂️
What’s wrong with that?
@@AlHowellthe fact that your biased about the price being affordable and how much value zbrush gives for what it costs
