Yeah the ability to change the pose or bone dimensions/orientation is really great indeed.

3D COat and Zbrush have some lot of similitudes in brushes and system :

3D Coat RAsp File and Muscle

Hair from muscles

The new ability to cut by plane in Zbrush also like in their last video , allow now also creating hard surface fast and easily

Yeah , Zbrush with Zsphere 2 and it's big power to sculpt on high geometry even on simple PC are really atttracting me :
It's so smooth and fast , even to paint 3D patterns.
High Price, but top notch tool !

In one of the last videos of Zbrush , they show hard surface modeling ot make a building :
tutorial projection master

Frank_G :
With the new brushes allowing to cut planes and the new projection master of Zbrus , do you plan to use that sort of tools to make 3D assets/buildings or do you stick with traditionnal modelers ?
